這是一封道歉信，寫的時候要遵循道歉信的一般模式：開篇直奔主題，然后說明原因，最后提出可能的補救措施。第一段，對晚交論文及對此造成的后果表示歉意；第二段，說明理由（可信的理由，而不是隨便應付老師的借口）；第三段，表示盡快完成論文。

A Letter of Apology
Dear Mr. Wang,
①I am writing to apologize for my late homework. The paper which you have ②assigned to us last Monday was ③due this Friday， but to my regret， I haven‘t even started it yet. I feel really sorry for not handing in the paper on time and ④for the inconvenience it would bring to you.
I have caught a serious cold last week and the doctor asked me to stay in bed for a week since I was very weak and the weather was very cold these days. Therefore， I couldn‘t go to the library to get the necessary ①referential information which was needed for my paper. As a result of this， I have not started writing the paper yet and could not hand it in on time.
Fortunately I have finally fully recovered. I will finish the paper as soon as I can and ①try my best to hand in homework on time in the future.
Sincerely yours,
Li Ming

Income Gap
1There has been a heated discussion over the growing income gap now. Some people hold that the gap is natural because it 2reflects different contributions that different people make in their work. 3In their view, those people with high income work hard and long. Besides, these people bring high 4efficiency, and create more wealth. Accordingly, they deserve high pay.
1On the other hand, there are always some people who view this gap negatively. They believe that a lot of crimes happen as a result of this income gap. Some people make so little from their work that they 2risk taking criminal acts to get rich. In fact, experts have long found out that most cases of crime are directly related to low income. There is 3another point to 4back up a negative view against income gap. For most people, income gap may destroy the satisfactionthat they obtain from work.1As anything has two sides, so has the problem of income gap. Personally, I believe that this gap may 2motivate people to compete better in job market. When this gap is growing too wide, however, our government should make some policies to 3get rid of its negative consequences.
