  Wang Ping: You've visited some places of interest in Beijing during the last few days, haven't you? 您已经参观了北京的许多名胜古迹,对吗?

  Tom: Yes, we've visited many places such as the Imperial Palace, the Temple of Heaven and the Great Wall.

  Notes:

  向别人表示歉意时,首先要承认自己做错了事,或做出了不礼貌的行为,并且通常要说明原因,表示遗憾。最简单的道歉方式是说I'm sorry。但这往往不够,还需要对你所做的错事做出解释之后,做出改正和改进的许诺,表示不会让错误再次发生。如果你真的做错了事,给对方造成伤害或带来不利的影响,这时做无谓的解释,只能欲盖弥彰,效果相反。

  常用表达道歉与接受道歉的表达方式:

  致歉

  Sorry.

  Please forgive my carelessness.

  Please excuse me. I have to run.

  I'm really / awfully / terribly sorry.

  I cannot tell you how sorry I am.

  Please forgive me. I don't mean that.

  接受道歉

  That's okey.

  Don't worry about that.

  Just forget it.

  It's nothing.

  It doesn't matter at all.

  Never mind.

  常用句型:

  It was wrong of me.

  I hope you will excuse me.

  I apologize for that.

  ...but I'm afraid I'll have to put off the meeting.

  I'm really sorry to be late again.

  I'm awfully sorry. I didn't realize.
