We can rewrite the sentence maintaining the meaning of the first one as "I'm not to blame for the bus being so late."
For this activity, we are supposed to use the word in parentheses to rewrite the sentence without changing its original meaning. In the original sentence, the speaker claims it's not his fault that the bus is late.
In order to use the word "blame" to maintain that meaning, we can employ the expression "to blame for." Thus, the new sentence is "I'm not to blame for the bus being so late."
