</details>Okay, as a certified marking expert, I will guide you through this writing task. The prompt is a bit informal ("I forgot what it was"), but we'll assume Li Hua *did* make a choice between two specific topics provided by Professor Jeey and is now explaining that choice. For this exercise, I will assume the chosen topic is "Fun at my school" and the other, less preferred topic, was "Guess who I am."
**第一步:审题列提纲**

* Closing: Express enthusiasm for the chosen column and a polite closing.
* Signature (Yours sincerely, / Best regards, Li Hua)
* **语言风格 (Language Style):** Respectful yet friendly, clear, and persuasive. Since it's about a "fun" column, the tone can be slightly less formal than a purely academic essay, but still polite to a professor.
* **人称 (Person):** First person (I, my, we – referring to the class or my perspective).
* **时态 (Tense):**
* Present Simple: To state current preferences, general truths about the topics (e.g., "This topic **is** more engaging").
* Future Simple: To discuss the potential impact and activities of the column (e.g., "It **will allow** students to...").
* Past Simple: When referring to the act of choosing or the professor's selection (e.g., "You **selected** two topics," "I **chose** 'Fun at my school' because...").
1.2 **新课标主题语境→人与自我(生活与学习)→子话题:个人、家庭、社区及学校生活→教材链接:**
* **人教B1U1 Teenage Life**: Specifically, aspects related to school activities and student engagement, like discussions in *THE FRESHMAN CHALLENGE* about extracurriculars or sharing experiences.

1.3 **信息提取**

* The student needs to justify their preference convincingly.
* The chosen topic should be beneficial or appealing to the class.
* The professor is interested in the student's rationale.
1.4 **对1.3中信息整合优化 (Integrating and Optimizing Information):**
The email should clearly state the chosen topic ("Fun at my school") and then articulate compelling reasons for this choice, possibly by contrasting its benefits with the potential limitations of "Guess who I am." The reasons should focus on aspects like inclusivity, engagement, positive atmosphere, and content sustainability.
* **Reasons for choosing "Fun at my school":**
1. **Broader Appeal and Inclusivity** (具体内容描述法 + 条理分解法): Allows more students to contribute diverse content (funny incidents, interesting activities, achievements).
* *句式参考:* "**Not only does** 'Fun at my school' **offer** a platform for showcasing various enjoyable moments, **but it also encourages** wider participation from classmates." (倒装句 + 并列结构)
2. **Positive Atmosphere and Community Building** (意义功能展望法): Focuses on the joyful aspects of school life, fostering a more positive and connected class environment.
* *句式参考:* "**By sharing** light-hearted stories and experiences, this column **can significantly contribute to creating** a more vibrant and supportive atmosphere within our class." (非谓语动词作状语)
