Dear Bob,
写作目的：I’m writing to apologize for having forgotten to return the “the Beatles” CD to you when I left Canada.
改写提纲一 ：I was in such a hurry that I packed everything in my luggage without checking carefully. Had I paid more attention then, I wouldn’t have made such a stupid mistake.
改写提纲二：Now something must be done to solve the problem because I understand you cherish the CD enormously. I can either send it to you by express mail or alternatively compensate you at a reasonable price. If you do not mind, I may bring it back to you next time I go to Canada.
期待回信：Please let me know which solution you prefer at your earliest convenience. I really hope you will accept my sincere apology.
Faithfully yours,
Li Ming

亲爱的鲍勃：
我从加拿大回来后收拾行李时突然发现了你上周向你借的音乐CD，这才明白我忘记将CD归还给你了，我感到万分抱歉!很抱歉你现在不能听了。
我向你借的CD是加拿大的，所以你应该可以在当地商店买到另外一个。所以你能不能自己买一个，我把钱寄给你?如果你找不到另外一个类似的CD了，我就用特快专递把这个CD寄回去。如果有你喜欢的其他方案，请告知我。
再次为我的粗心道歉。期待你的回复。
真诚的，
李明
