Linguistics is one of the most difficult content courses to English Majors, due to its emphasis on the completeness of the highly specialized linguistic theories. Therefore, the necessity and importance of it in the major studies were once questioned. However, after 30 years＇ construction, judged from the results of survey covering about 10 universities and colleges, its role in subject system has been widely accepted; the design of its textbook can stress the features of the linguistics, meet students＇ learning level and catch up with the new trend; its teaching outstands the nature of language and linguistics, theoretical application, adoption of students＇ learning need of ETM-8, postgraduate entrance examination as well as other courses in order to adjust their incorrect concept of the course, deepen the contents of the instruction, release the pressure of students＇ fear in the course learning and stimulate their learning interest.
