重视外语教学中的跨文化因素

Highlighting Cross-Cultural Factors in Foreign Language Teaching

全球一体化进程与国际互联网的普及使得跨文化交际能力成为外语学习最重要的目的。外语教学已不仅是听、说、读、写、译的知识学习与技能性培养,而更加强调文化背景知识的导入,以避免语言交流中由于文化背景不同而产生的种种误会与冲突,从而保证语言交流的质量与效率。外语教学中要有步骤、循规则,结合教材与形势将文化背景、语言知识和交际能力的培养结合起来。

With the development of globalization and the popularity of the Internet, cross- cultural communicative competence has proved to be the most important in learning foreign languages. Foreign language teaching is no longer limited to the gain of knowledge and the development of language abilities in only five parts： listening, speaking, reading, writing and translating. More information about cultural background is urgently needed in order to avoid possible misunderstanding and conflicts resulted in communication from the ignorance of each other＇s traditional cultures, and thus communication can be carried out efficiently. So information about cultural background should be introduced correspondingly, step by step, in the course of learning a textbook to gain knowledge of language and develop communicative abilities.
