In Britain, you may often hear someone say sorry. Many people would say sorry for sure when they correct others’ 1 (mistake) or when they are late for meetings. But they also say sorry about the weather. And they often say sorry to you when you bump (撞) into them on the street. They say sorry when they can’t 2 (hear) you. They also say sorry before they sit down next to you.
How many times do British people say sorry every day A study group asked over 1,000 people. The report was 3 (surprise). One in eight of them says sorry up to 20 times 4 day!
“Sorry” comes 5 the Old English word “sarig.” At first, it meant painful (痛苦的) and upset. However, they don’t always feel painful 6 upset when they say sorry. The British may say sorry 7 (much) than people of other cultures, but this doesn’t mean they feel sorry all the time. Usually, they say sorry as a way of showing good manners. “Sorry” is probably the most 8 (common) heard word in Britain.
So if you 9 (visit) a British family, your host may say sorry to you several times a day. Don’ t feel strange. They may feel sorry for saying sorry all the time. Wait, did I just say “sorry” 10 (two) in one sentence Sorry about that!
