II. The following passage contains 10 errors. Find and correct them (10pts)

It is difficult to write rules that tell about exactly when we should apologize, but it is

not difficult to learn what. If we have done something to hurt someone feelings, or if

we have been impolite or rude, we should apologize. An apology indicates that we

have done a mistake and we are sorry for them. It is a way of expressing our regret for

something. When we apologize, we admit our wrongdoing, usually offer a reason why

for it, and express regret.

The simplest way to apologize is to say, " I'm sorry", but often which is not enough.

Let's take a common sitiation. Mario is late and enters the classroom, interrupting the

teacher in the middle of the lesson. What does he do? The most polite action is usually

to take a seat as quietly as possibly and apologize later. Natural, more than this is

needed, but this is not the time for it because of he has already caused one interruption

and doesn't need to make it any longer.
