An Apology for Not Keeping an Appointment

July 24， 199___

Dear Alan，

I"m writing to apologize about last Thursday。 I am terribly sorry that I didn"t go to see you， for I lost my wallet。 Anyway， I found it。 But it was too late for the train。 I had to take the bus。 What a pity that I took a wrong one。 It went to Milford。 There， I waited for half an hour for a bus to Driffield。 It was much worse that on the way to your home， the bus broke down。 So I just went back home to Pigston。 I really do apologize because I didn"t speak to you on the phone， but it wasn"t my fault。 I tried several times， but there was no answer。

Anyway， how about next Thursday?

Love，

Tom

【写法指要】

1）这是一封私人信件。私人书信一般不写信内地址和信头里的地址，但是信头里的日期不能省去。

2）致歉信应包括三个部分：①道歉（apology）；②叙述原因或问题（reason or problem）；③后果及解决办法（consequence and solution）。

3）私人书信，尤其是亲属间和朋友间的信件属于非正式书信，所以要用非正式文体来写；就是说信文中可以出现缩约形式，如“I"m writing”，“didn"t”等，也可以用像“phone”这类非正式词语。句法结构简短，随便。
