I suddenly fell sick early that morning and my parents had to send me to the hospital. Please find enclosed a copy of the medical bill.
I sincerely hope you can understand my situation and accept my apology. I would appreciate your allowing me to take a make-up examination. I will come to your office during your office hour on Monday to discuss this possibility with you. Once again, I apologize for any inconvenience caused.
Sincerely yours,
Wang Hua

Yours truly,

Dear Tom,
How is everything going with you?
I’m terribly sorry that I’m not able to go to your birthday party this Saturday afternoon. I’m in Beijing now because my mother is seriously ill and will have an operation here. She is in bad need of my care these days, so I’m staying here to take care of her in the hospital.
I wish you a happy birthday and hope everything will go well with the party. By the way, I have sent you the latest CD of Zhang Jie. I hope you’ll like this birthday present.
I’m looking forward to seeing you soon.
Yours,
Wang Tao
Dear John,
I am extremely sorry to tell you that I am unable to go to your party this Sunday. It is very kind of you to invite me to your house and I really look forward to going to your party and sharing your happy experience abroad.
Much to my regret, I will be absent from your party, owing to the fact that the College Entrance Exam, for which I am now really busy preparing, is just around the corner. What's worse, I have caught a bad cold lately and I am really not myself. Anyway, we will have many more chances to get together. Shall we make it after the Exam? I am truly sorry. I hope you will forgive me and accept my sincere apology.
Enjoy yourself and wish your party a great success. Yours
Lihua

Unable to return borrowed book on time
Dear Kate:
Excuse me for my long delaying in returning to you your “Robinson Crusoe” which I read through with great interest. I had finished reading the book and was about to return it when my cousin came to see me. Never having seen the book, She was so interested in it that I had to retain it longer. However, I hope that in view of the additional delight thus afforded by your book, you will overlook my negligence in not returning it sooner.
Thanking you again for the loan.
Sincerely yours,
Tom

Dear Susan
I’m awfully sorry I forgot to meet you at the railway station yesterday.
We had an end-of-term party in our dormitory the night before.
I was so proud of the final exam results that I drank like a fish all night.
I felt dizzy all day yesterday and had little sense of what I should do.
It was in the evening that I realized I forgot to meet you at the railway station.
Since then, I’ve tried to call you several times, but I feel you are still angry with me and wouldn’t answer my phone call.
I promise this will not happen and wish you would forgive me.
Love James
dear sarah,
i am terribly sorry to tell you that i am unable to attend your birthday part next thursday evening. that is owing to the fact that my younger brother suddenly fell ill and was taken to a hospital this morning. i have to go there immediately and take care of him. as told by the doctor in charge, it will take around five days for him to recover and i have asked my boss for a leave.
i really regret that i cannot go to celebrate your birthday personally and would miss the perfect chance of enjoying myself with all our old friends. i have chosen a small gift for you and will send it to you tomorrow to show my best wishes. besides, please give my regards to our friends when you meet them at the party. cordially,
li ming
I'm willing to concede that I have hurt you, but that's not my real intention. I'm the victim too.
Sometimes I think you just saw your pain and neglect my feeling.
Sometimes we’ve talked too much about the problem and stuff, but no effect. …….
I hate the atmosphere of tension filled the room, It is stifling.

Dear Ashley,
Please accept my deepest apologies for my mistake in regard to leaking customer information to people from the other department.
It was not my intention to create such an awkward and embarrassing situation for our department. If there was any good that came out of this unfortunate experience, it is that I have grown and learned alternative approaches to these situations.
Please feel free to let me of your thoughts and concerns over this matter. You can reach me at email.
Sincerely, Jim
Dear Tom,
I’m very sorry that I can’t go on a trip to Beijing with you next weekend, which I have promised you. I’m writing to tell you the reason for it.(topic)
Just now, my cousin, Li Ming, who went abroad for further education last year, informed me that he would return the next Saturday morning. He asked me to pick him up at the airport with his parents. As you know, we haven’t seen each other for about a year, so I’ll have to help him in the first place.
I really hope that you can accept my apologies and understand me. I would appreciate it if you allow me to fix another time to show you around some places of interest in Beijing. Wish you have a good time this weekend!
Yours, Li Ming

It's not for the first time that we have continual arguments with each other for trifles. Maybe we should not communicate with an overpowering and domineering style，seeking to convince or impose one's thought to another. What we need best is trust, tolerance, understanding and communication and leave plenty of space for another.
When we were in cold war, for just a second, I flatter myself that you were so sad for me, just for me, only for me. Hahaha …. As the saying goes, only the people who in your heart may hurt you deeply. By this token, I’m an important person for you.
Look back to our past happy days and for the old time’s sake, forgive me for my slight offence. As Shakespeare wrote, the course of true friendship never did run smooth. So do not give me a cold shoulder any more. I can’t live with it. This is a lose-lose situation, not a desirable outcome.
