有时抱歉似乎最难说出口,其实也不一定,尤其是在雅思G类考试当中。
本文将介绍两类道歉型题目(个人道歉及正式道歉),介绍该如何解答这两类题目,并通过案例分析来帮助大家理解。
示例:
1. You missed an important dinner meeting at work.你错过了很重要的工作晚宴。
Write a letter to your manager.写信给你的经理
In the letter:信中需要描述:
正式或商业信函 | 非正式或个人信函 |
I am very sorry that I was not able to come.很抱歉我未能出席。 | I’m so sorry I wasn’t able to make it.很抱歉我没做到。 |
Please accept my sincerest apology.请接受我最诚挚的道歉。 | Please accept my apology.请接受我的道歉。 |
I wish to sincerely apologize for missing the meeting.我为错过会议而真挚道歉。 | I ‘m sorry I missed your party.对不起,我错过了你的派对。 |
I regret that I was not in attendance.很遗憾我未能出席。 | I regret that I couldn’t come.很遗憾我没有参加。 |
I am writing to apologize for not attending the team building dinner last night. I understand that these events are valuable but, unfortunately, I was held up and could not get there on time.
My absence was a result of an overextended meeting with John Powers, the CEO. Mr. Powers called an emergency problem solving conference about the Waterford campaign that carried over late into the evening. He insisted on no interruptions during our discussions so phones were silenced. By the time I was able to message you, it was after eleven o’clock and our team dinner meeting had completed.
I have followed up with everyone to explain why I was not there. In addition, I have reserved a table in the cafeteria at lunch for those who can join and share their take away from the team building exercises with me today. If there is anything else I need to know or do, please let me know.
Once again, I sincerely regret missing the activities and dinner and hope you understand the unavoidable circumstances that led to my absence.
Yours truly,
Marcus Prendergast

Dear Pam,
I’m so sorry that I missed your birthday party yesterday. I know a lot of planning went into the surprise but something unavoidable kept me from being there.
Unfortunately, I got a call from my son’s school telling me that he’d been injured at his out of town football tournament and I had to drive to Kingston to get him. It turns out that it was just some bruising but the drive and the four-hour wait in the emergency department made it impossible to make it back in time for the celebrations.
With the party being a surprise, I couldn’t message you when I left and I lost cellular service once I got out of the city limits.
I trust you got the card and flowers I sent last night and I’d love to take you out for lunch next week to hear all about the fun you had.
I’m really regretting that I couldn’t be there to spend your 50th with you. Hope you’ll forgive me.
Sincerely,
Joan
