96. A Letter of Apology 道歉信
June 10, 2002
Dear Li Hua,
I'm afraid that I can't go with you to visit my teacher Dr. Smith, because I've got a very important appointment tomorrow.
Last night I called Dr Smith and told him all about our visit. You can surely go by yourself without me. Dr Smith has a very round face, a bald head, a pair of large bright eyes and a very big nose. His moustache and eyebrows are long and thick. You'll never fail to recognize him the moment you see him. Please take the Third Avenue and go eastward. When you arrive at the fourth crossing, turn right and you will see many tall buildings. Dr Smith lives at No. 124 on the 12th floor of Building One. Don't forget to give my regards to my teacher.

親愛的李華,
恐怕我不能陪你去見我的老師史密斯先生,因為明天我有一個很重要的約會。
昨天晚上我與史密斯先生通話,告訴他我們的訪問,你可以自己去。史密斯先生圓臉,禿頂,亮亮的大眼睛,高高的鼻子,他的胡子和眉毛又長又濃。你一看到他就能認出來。你從第三大街往東,走到第四個路口向右拐,你會看見許多高樓。史密斯先生住在一號樓12層124房間。別忘了代我問候老師。
