8、 I Apologize. 我很抱歉。 

 

【对话二：】

A: Jessie, I’m afraid I can’t come back home for dinner tonight. 

B: Not back home for dinner again? That’s the third time this week! 

A: I’m sorry. Our company has just opened. There are always too many things to handle. You know that. 

B: You don’t have to explain. Suit yourself. 

A: I apologize. You have my word, I’ll spend some time with you on the weekend. I promise. 

B: We’ll see.

A: Thank you for understanding. I promise I’ll make it up to you. 

 

【对话二：】

A: Sam, you’ve got to forgive me. 

B: Forgive you for what? 

A: I used your computer. And I’m afraid I’ve erased your personal files accidentally.

B: No! Are you kidding me?

A: I’m afraid not. I apologize.

B: I can’t believe it! I have all my important personal documents stored in that computer. It’s no laughing matter. 

A: I told you I’m sorry. What can I do to make it up to you? 

B: Well, you should be sorry! Don’t ever use my computer again! You can’t do anything now, it’s too late!
