You must apologise. 这是你的过错,你必须道歉。 I really don't know who is to apologise. 我的确不知道谁应该道歉。 二、表示“向……表示歉意”要加介词to。 If you are late for class, you should apologise to the teacher either at the time or after class. 如果你迟到了,你要么当时,要么课后向老师道歉。 What you have done is right. You needn't apologise to her. 你做的事情是对的,你没有必要向她道歉。 三、表示“因……道歉”要加介词for。 —I must apologise for not letting you know ahead of time. 没有提前通知你,我表示歉意。 —That's all right. 没关系。 I apologised to Mary for not coming to her birthday party last week.我因上周没参加玛丽的生日聚会而向她表示歉意。 四、apologise的名词为apology,和make构成make an apology短语,意思和用法与apologise相同。 The captain made an apology to the passengers for the delay caused by the weather. 船长因天气造成的延误向乘客表示歉意。 Tom made an apology to Jane for losing her new bike. 汤姆因丢失了简的新自行车而向她表示歉意。 另外,apology也可同accept,refuse等词连用,表示“接受”或“拒绝”道歉。 It is not good manners to refuse others' apology. 拒绝他人的道歉是没礼貌的。 Are you going to accept his apology? 你打算接受他的道歉吗?
