小作文之二——道歉信

道歉信的目的是向收信人表明歉意，请求对方对自己的某种过失表示谅解。

写作策略：

首段：表明写信意图，对某事表示歉意。

主体段落：说明道歉的具体原因，应展开。在主体段落中，写信人应当在申述理由时照顾读信人的感受，切忌强词夺理。

结尾段：再次表明兼意，请求收信人的谅解。在结尾段还可以建议对自己的过失采取何种补救措施。

Directions:

1) explaining why you cannot meet him at the airport,

2) asking him to wait for you at the airport, and

3) telling him how to identify you.

You should write with no less than 100 words on Answer Sheet 2. Do not sign your own name at the end of the letter. Use “Li Ming”instead. You do not need to write the address.

范文：

Dear Martin,

I am looking forward to your visit. Just think, after all these years of writing to each other, we will finally have the chance to meet! However, I am sorry that I will not be able to meet you at the airport as soon as you arrive.

The reason is that your flight will arrive early in the morning, and the earliest I can get To the airport will be about an hour after you land. Please wait for me in the arrival lounge. You should be able to have breakfast there while you wait.

By the way, as we have never met I must tell you how to recognize me. I am of medium height and have a small moustache. In addition, I will be carrying a copy of the morning newspaper tucked under my left arm.

Looking forward to our meeting.

Yours sincerely,

Li Ming
