在线课程【答案】Dear Zhang Ming,
How are you? Thanks so much for inviting me to your eighteenth birthday party. Happy birthday to you! I’d like to go, but I am afraid I can’t be present. I’m so sorry.
My mother had a fall yesterday evening and got hurt badly in her right leg. I have to look after her because my father is away on business. It is really a pity to miss your birthday party.
Here, I’d like to express my best wishes in advance. I have just bought a wallet for you, which I hope you would like. The present will be delivered to you by express and will get to you tomorrow.
Sorry again for my absence.
Yours,
Li hua
