一篇英语道歉信（优秀20篇）

Dear Sarah,

I am terribly sorry to tell you that I am unable to attend your birthday party next Thursday evening. That is owing to(因为) the fact that (同位语从句)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, (sincerely)

Dear Mr Minister,

On behalf of the United States Government, I now outline steps to resolve this issue.

Both President Bush and Secretary of State Powell have expressed their sincere regret over your missing pilot and aircraft. Please convey to the Chinese people and to the family of pilot Wang Wei that we are very sorry for their loss. Although the full picture of what transpired is still unclear, according to our information, our severely crippled aircraft made an emergency landing after following international emergency procedures. We are very sorry the entering of Chinas airspace and the landing did not have verbal clearance, but very pleased the crew landed safely.

We appreciate Chinas efforts to see to the well-being of our crew. In view of the tragic incident and based on my discussions with your representatives, we have agreed to the following actions:

Both sides agree to hold a meeting to discuss the incident. My government understands and expects that our air crew will be permitted to depart China as soon as possible.

The meeting would be April 18,.

The meeting agenda would include discussions of the causes of the incident, possible recommendations whereby such collisions could be avoided in the future, development of a plan for prompt return of the EP-3 aircraft, and other related issues. We acknowledge your governments intention to raise U.S. reconnaissance missions near China in the meeting.

Sincerely

Joseph W. Prueher

Dear Mr. Wang,

I am writing to apologize for my late homework. The paper which you have assigned to us last Monday was due this Friday, but to my regret, I havent even started it yet. I feel really sorry for not handing in the paper on time and for the inconvenience it would bring to you.

I have caught a serious cold last week and the doctor asked me to stay in bed for a week since I was very weak and the weather was very cold these days. Therefore, I couldnt go to the library to get the necessary referential information which was needed for my paper. As a result of this, I have not started writing the paper yet and could not hand it in on time.

Fortunately I have finally fully recovered. I will finish the paper as soon as I can and try my best to hand in homework on time in the future.

Sincerely yours,

Li Ming

Dear Mr Minister,

As you are reading this letter, I bet that you have seen/heard about what happened earlier in our country.

Tourists were hostages of a policeman here, Rolando Mendoza. After a few hours of the horrible crime, some of the victims were dead including the hostage-taker.

I wrote this letter not just to apologize but also to let everyone know that we Filipinos are not all like Mendoza. We are loving and good-hearted people.

For so many years, our country has been standing tall and surpassing every dilemma; be it small or big. Years ago (back when I wasn’t born yet), you have watched us fight for what we think is right. We fought for the democracy of our nation.. The EDSA revolution. But that’s just one out of many.

Second. We Filipinos have been serving other countries for our families and we treat you as our own as well. With all due respect, I thank you all for giving us the trust through the years. For helping us to become what we are now.

The Philippines is more than just a group of islands. We are a nation of strong and remarkable people. A country of beauty and love known to be hospitable and well-valued. I humbly apologize for what happened tonight. No one in this world would want something like that to happen for life should be valued.

I politely ask the attention of the world. Please do not judge and mistreat us just 6

because of what happened tonight. I have been searching the net and found terrible things. Hong Kong advices to avoid travels here, China and HK bans Filipinos and that Philippines is the worst place to go.

I can’t blame you for what you have decided but I hope that you could understand. Our country is now in a sea of problems. And I know for sure that we helped you in a way or another. Let peace and understanding reign this time.

I know that this letter will just be trash but I wish that you would understand. On behalf of the Philippine population.. WE ARE SORRY.

As a song puts it…

And I believe that in my life I will see an end to hopelessness, giving-up and suffering. And we all stand together this one time then no one will get left behind. Stand up for life. STAND UP FOR LOVE

Sincerely yours,

Reigno Jose Dilao

Dear professor Jackson：

I am indeed very sorry that I missed the examination you gave on Moby-Dick last Wednesday. I feel badly about it and want you to know what happened.

On my way to class that day，I had a flat tire，and I had to go with the mechanic when he repaired it. It took me more than one hour to get it done. A copy of the bill is enclosed.

I sincerely hope you can accept my apologies and understand my situation. I would appreciate your allowing me to take a make up examination. I will #e to your office during your office hour on Monday to discuss this possibility with you. Once again，Im sorry fro any inconvenience caused.

Sincerely yours，

Alice

Hi George,

I’m really, really sorry but I just can’t make it for basketball practice this evening. We’ve got a biology test tomorrow and I haven’t yet started studying for it. I can’t afford to fail the test, because I already failed the last one.

I promise to make up for it by the next practice session.

Dear Tom,

I feel terribly sorry to tell you that our trip to Beijing next weekend will be rearranged due to my personal reason. I was informed just now that I entered the final of the CCTV English Speech Competition. And the final is to be held next week. The winner of this competition will get an opportunity to study in Harvard University. Sounds fantastic, doesn’t it?

For years, I have been dreaming about studying abroad as an exchange student to learn/experience different cultures. Now the chanceis coming. I think that if you were me, you would grasp it as I do.

Is it possible for us to make another time to visit Beijing? I sincerely hope you can accept my apologies and understand me. Once again, I’m sorry for any inconvenience caused.

incerely yours,

Li Hua

Dear Marry

Directions: You failed to finish an important task assigned by your professor because of a severe illness. Write a letter to your professor tp express your apology, explain your reason, and suggest a solution to make up the loss.

You should write about 100 words on ANSWER SHEET 2.

Do not sign your own name at the end of the letter. Use “Li Ming” instead. Do not write the address.

Dear Prof. Patent,

I am very sorry to inform you that I did not manage to complete the book report you assigned last week, due to a sudden illness falling upon me a few days ago. For the past few days I have been in hospital with a continuous fever, which has thus prevented me from any academic activity. I hereby submit the doctor’s note.

I would be very much obliged if you could grant me another week for the task, as my health is turning better.

Hope you can understand my situation and accept my apology.

Yours faithfully,

Li Ming

Dear Daisy,

I would like to express my apology for missing our 14 oclock appointment.

A small accident happened to me when I was on my way to school. I am going

to come over to your apartment the day after tomorrow — Monday, April4, at 14 p.m. If it is convenient for you, I will check my e-mail tomorrow to make sure whether you have left a note for me. Otherwise, I will see you at 14:00 p.m.,

I am very sorry for that again.

Dear Jane,

I am excessively sorry to tell you that I won’t be able to come this afternoon because I have to go to the airport at 2:00 p.m. to meet an overseas visitor from Australia.

I really have kept our date in my mind all these days. However, I received my boss’e-mail this morning, and he asked me to go to the airport to meet one of his friends from abroad. It’s sudden and urgent and I must go.

I’m sorry for any inconvenience caused. Please forgive me. Would you please ring me up to make another time? We may meet again and I hope to see you soon.

Sincerely，

Li Ming

Dear Prof. Wang,

I’m writing to ask you to excuse me for not being able to keep our appointment. I do know that this is very impolite and must have caused you much trouble.

I do reckon that at present any explanation is pale and futile. However I do not want you to misunderstand me. On my way to your office, an old lady suddenly fainted due to heart attack on the bus. I stopped a taxi and sent her into a nearby hospital. I stayed there until her son came, which spoiled our appointment.

I am aware that our appointment is of importance. I do hope that you would be kind enough to spare your valuable to meet me.

I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely Yours

Dearest mother,

How are you and dad doing? I hope my letter will ease the disappointment you must be feeling after I called you to say that I will not be able to go home for Christmas holidays.

I am so sorry to miss the family dinner on Christmas eve this year. I have a ton of requirements to finish before the year ends and I could not afford to have a vacation this year.

I will simply spend Christmas eve with friends here and then go back to the college campus to work on my project and other documents I must submit on the first week of January.

Dont worry, this is but a small sacrifice for us to make so that I finish my studies soon. I know you will be delighted come graduation day and I will do my best to graduate with honors. I will miss you all!

Love,

Oliver

Dear John,

I am eagerly looking forward to your visit to our city. After all these years of writing to each other, I can not wait to see you. However, I regret to inform you that I will not be able to meet you at the airport on time.

The reason is that your flight will arrive early in the morning, and the earliest I can reach the airport will be about an hour after you land. Will you please wait for me in the arrival lounge? You can have breakfast while you wait.

By the way, as we have never met I must tell you home to identify me: I am of 165cm tall and have a long hair. In addition, I will wear a white skirt and carry a China Daily at hand.

Hope we can meet soon.

Sincerely yours,

Alice
