应用文写作——道歉信
　　技法指导
道歉信是指因过失或疏忽给别人带来麻烦或损失后，写信给对方赔礼道歉的信件。道歉是一种礼貌，道歉信要写得坦率、诚恳。
道歉信通常包括三部分内容：
(1)向对方表示歉意。
(2)说明道歉的原因，对失误或错误进行解释(一般要求自由发挥)。

注意：语言要诚恳，理由要真实。好的道歉信不仅会取得对方的谅解，还会增进彼此的感情。

Dear Mom and Dad，
I know that I hurt you very badly yesterday. I am extremely sorry for my behavior and I have no courage to face you.
Dear Mom, I love you more than my life. When I was a kid, you were the one who always stood by me, who cared about me, who loved me more than anything. When I was sick, you took care of me the whole night. And Dad, you are my real superhero. When I did anything wrong, you always pointed it out at once and showed me the right way. I've thought about my actions and I've realized that I was wrong for the way I acted. I want to apologize.
I have made up my mind that I will never repeat it in future anymore. I assure you that I will never let you down. Please accept my heartfelt apology.
Sincerely，
Li Hua
