【示例1】因不能按期還書而道歉——因為被我表妹強行借走了

Dear Kate,

How is everything going? I am writing to beg your pardon for my long delaying in returning to you your “Gone with the Wind” which I read through with great interest.

I had already 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 no choice but to allow her finish the book.I hope that in view of the additional delight thus afforded by your book, you will overlook my negligence（疏忽）in not returning it sooner.（然而，看在你的那本書能夠帶來的雙倍喜悅的面子上，希望你能夠原諒我沒有及早還書的錯誤）

I sincerely hope you can accept my apologies and understand my situation. Thanking you again for the loan.

Sincerely yours,

Tom

【示例2】不能如期赴約而道歉——因為要參加英語比賽

Dear Tom,

How is everything going? I am writing to beg your pardon for my not being able to join you for the trip to Beijing next weekend which we planned before.

I have been looking forward to the trip for a long time and have done a lot of preparation.However, I am informed that the CCTV national English competition is going to be held on that day. You know that I've been waiting for the chance for months and thus by no means can I miss it. As a result, I cannot make it for the trip.     I do hope you can accept my apologies and understand my situation.

Please allow me to say sorry again.   .

Sincerely yours,

Tom
