How many parts and what are they?

Possible example

Dear Mr. Singh,

I’m writing to apologize for any

misunderstandings that occurred when I showed you around Beijing the other day.

purpose

I felt rather strange when you would not

shake hands with me. I did not realize that there are some taboos in different countries and cultures. After reading a magazine article, I know that people from India don’t shake hands with their left hands. I should not have held out my left hand to you. And I know you do not eat beef because of your religion.

explanation

I feel very sorry for not having known

these taboos earlier. I hope you can forgive me for all these misunderstandings. I hope our next meeting will be happier.

Yours sincerely,

(name)

Hope
