我们从小到大都参加过无数的会议。一方面，我们可以聊聊比较正式的会议，例如高中班主任或者大学辅导员开的班级会议，公司主管开的业务总结会、财年会议等。另一方面，一些informal meetings也可以做为描述对象，如同学们朋友的见面会等。大家在拿到题目的时候，先给自己一分钟的时间进行准备（模仿一下考场的环境），然后进行口头演练，最后再参考老烤鸭给出的原创范文进行巩固练习。

A time I was late for a meeting happened about a year ago. It was on the first Friday afternoon of September.
一次我晚到的会议发生在大约一年前。那是九月份的第一个周五的下午。
I remember at that time, our government lifted COVID lockdown and commuting restrictions, so we were able to attend classes on campus. At that time, my prof invited us to join a meeting to discuss what to write for our mid-term paper.
我记得那个时候，我们政府已经解除了疫情封锁和通勤限制，我们能够去校园上课了。就是在那个时候，我的教授邀请我们参加一个会议来商讨其中的论文事宜。
My professor informed us by email that we should arrive before 3 pm as he would have another class to teach in school an hour later. Well, the awkward thing was that I was half an hour late for this important meeting. This article is from Laokaoya website. The main reason was that I was playing a game called The World of Warcraft, a massively multiplayer online game. I had a dungeon to finish, which lasted around forty minutes. To avoid getting late, I intentionally set up an alarm that I missed, unfortunately. Maybe I was too deeply absorbed in the game and forgot there was a meeting.
我的教授通过邮件告诉我们需要在下午三点前到达，一个小时之后他还有另外一节课要教。很尴尬的就是，我当时迟到了半小时。主要的原因就是我当时在玩一款叫做魔兽世界的多人在线游戏。我当时有个五人副本要打，需要大概四十分钟吧。为了防止迟到，我特意设置了闹钟。遗憾的是，这我也错过了。或许是因为我当时太投入了，忘记了有会议这回事情了。
Honestly speaking, I felt a bit guilty when I arrived there as my prof and classmates were waiting for me to cover up things we needed to do in cooperation. I was grateful that they didn’t blame me for anything, and I really hope this kind of stupid mistake won’t happen again in the future.
老实说，当我抵达那里的时候我感到很愧疚。因为，我的教授和同学们都等着我来完成需要合作的部分。他们并没有责备我，我很感激。我希望我未来不要再犯这种愚蠢的错误了。
