Answer 1

Dear Miss Clinton,
I am very sorry that I will not be able to attend the lecture tomorrow afternoon, which is on American culture.
My mother is ill, and I will take her to hospital tomorrow since my father is on a business trip. I will take care of my mother until she is better, so I have to ask for several days’ leave. I am very interested in the topic of American culture. It is nearly a pity that I miss it. I wonder if there will be any recording of the lecture. If so, I can listen to it when it is convenient.
Thank you very much. 
Yours
