英语的道歉信范文一

Dear Prof. Patent,

I am very sorry to inform you that I did not manage to complete the book report you assigned last week, due to a sudden illness falling upon me a few days ago. For the past few days I have been in hospital with a continuous fever, which has thus prevented me from any academic activity. I hereby submit the doctor's note.

I would be very much obliged if you could grant me another week for the task, as my health is turning better.

Hope you can understand my situation and accept my apology.

Yours faithfully,

Li Ming

英语的道歉信范文二

Dear Susan,

I'm very sorry that I was out when you came to see me yesterday evening. I'm afraid I'd gone to the pub with some friends and didn't get back until 12 o'clock. I wish I had known you were in Luoyang as you could have come with us. It would have been a good introduction to the night life! Anyway, I will call on you at 10 o'clock on Saturday morning at your hotel. We can have the day together, if you have nothing else planned? I'll show you some of the places of interest that you may not have seen.

Please let me know if you will be available on Saturday morning.

Best wishes

Chen Cheng
