Reflection for not finishing Merchant of Venice

Actually I would like to state that I had finished to page 270 but I still did not finish it on time. I am regretful to state that I had spent more time reading other books (including Chinese ones) during the holidays. I found Merchant of Venice extremely boring and hard to understand. I may spent up to three minutes on each page, pondering upon the words and their meanings. However, I know that it was irresponsible and lazy of me when I do not finish the book on time. I apologise for the inconvenience that I had brought to the class.
