4. 道歉信

道歉信大多是因我方工作失誤，引進(jìn)對(duì)方的不快，以表示陪禮道歉，消除曲解，增進(jìn)友誼和信賴的信函。

這類(lèi)應(yīng)用文是有套句的：

道歉事由的說(shuō)明：
I’m writing to show my apology for…
I would like to express my apologies for not being able to…
I’m sorry to say that I’ve not finished reading it through, and have to keep it until next Sunday.
Excuse me for my delaying in turning in my assignment.
道歉原因的說(shuō)明：
I had a minor accident.
I had a minor operation.
彌補(bǔ)糾正及其承諾：
I am sure I can make up the loss by…
I promise it will never happen again.
It would be very kind （considerate） of you to give me another chance to…（to give me another two days）
進(jìn)一步致歉：
Many apologies.
Do please forgive me.

① 小錯(cuò)道歉

April 20, 2010

Dear Peter,

I am writing to you to apologize for the abrupt way I departed just after the exams finished. It was terribly rude of me to have left without saying good-bye to you. The fact is that I was so excited when I learned I had passed the exams with high marks that I couldn’t wait to get home and tell my parents. I am sure you will understand my feelings. Please accept my sincere apology, and with you a really happy holiday.

Yours Truthfully,
Fiona

點(diǎn)評(píng)：一般情況下，道歉信可以按照下面的思路行文：
a. 道歉的行為與內(nèi)容；
b. 具體理由；
c. 彌補(bǔ)方法；
d. 進(jìn)一步致歉

② 約會(huì)取消的道歉

April 20, 2010

Dear Fiona,

I am sorry I missed seeing you yesterday. I know that you must have been disappointed. I also feel worried and anxious in my heart. The fact is that my manager at the last moment asked me to prepare an urgent plan while I could not get to a phone to call you and yesterday I have worked late until about 8:30 p. m. I am terribly sorry. However, I would like to ask you out this weekend to make up for yesterday.
Please give me a chance and I am waiting for your reply.
?

Sincerely Yours,
Amelia

點(diǎn)評(píng)：本類(lèi)的主要思路是：我錯(cuò)過(guò)約會(huì)很抱歉，我的原因是，我此信道歉的同時(shí)希望可以改日和你再見(jiàn)，再約時(shí)間見(jiàn)面。

③ 未能赴約的道歉

April 20, 2010

Dear Fiona,

I imagine that you must be enjoying your birthday party today. I write this letter to offer my heartiest congratulations and best wishes for many returns of the day. It is a great pity that I cannot be with you. But remember I am thinking of you all the time. I hope that all your years to come will be twice as happy and as merry as those past.
Please accept the small gift I am sending you as a token of my best wishes for your happy birthday.
?

Sincerely Yours,
Amelia

點(diǎn)評(píng)：沒(méi)能參加你的生日會(huì)我感到很抱歉。本篇范文請(qǐng)關(guān)注最后一個(gè)高亮句子，還是很不錯(cuò)的，大家可以學(xué)習(xí)一下~
