WHEN AND HOW TO APPOLOGIZE
One key to getting along well with people is to know when and how to say you are sorry. Sometimes
little comments or actions can hurt or offend others. However, we fail to see how our actions make others
feel. In most cases, if someone is offended by something you do or say, it is much better to apologize right
away. That solves the small problem and keeps it from getting bigger.
It is not easy to apologize. Many of us are ashamed or have too much pride. Sometimes we just do not
know how to do it. Here are some tips that may make it easier to say you are sorry.
Take responsibility. The first step in apologizing is to admit to yourself that you have offended someone.
You must admit you have done something wrong and accept responsibility for your actions.
Explain. It is important to let the person you hurt know that you did not mean to do harm. At the same
time, you must show that you take your mistake seriously.
Show your regret. Say that you are sorry or ashamed: I'm sorry. I'm ashamed of myself.
Repair the damage. If you damage someone's property, offer to fix it. If the damage is not so obvious,
ask: What can I do to make it up to you? There may be nothing concrete you can do, but the offer must be
sincere. Another way to repair the damage is to send a note or a small gift.
Apologizing does not mean that who "won" or who "lost". It is a good way to keep a strong friendship.
Câu 46. Which sentence is not true?
A. We all know how to apologize but we do not want to do.
B. Some people have too much pride to apologize.

D. An apology is sometimes difficult to say.
Câu 47. According to the writer, __________.
