少数民族院校英语修辞学的教学改革

Teaching Reform on English Rhetoric in Ethnic Minority Colleges and Universities

英语修辞学作为英语专业高年级教学中的一门学科,一直是一个薄弱环节。随着人们对语言的要求不断提高,修辞在话语中的作用日趋重要,所以英语修辞的教学急需改革。少数民族高等学校英语修辞教学的改革主要从三方面入手:改变观念,重新树立修辞学在教师和学生心目中的地位;改变教学方法,在教学中采用归类法、相似辞格比较法、双语对比法、举例法等方法进行教授;改变教学模式,将修辞学与其他学科交叉教学。通过对少数民族高校英语修辞教学的改革,不但使该学科受到教师和学生的重视,把各种修辞手法准确地应用在书面语和口语中,而且也使少数民族学生的英语水平进一步提高,以适应社会的需求。

As a course for senior English majors, English Rhetoric has always been a weak point in teaching. With the development of people＇s demand for language, rhetoric has played more important role in sentences, so the teaching of English Rhetoric needs to be reformed. In ethnic minority colleges and universities, teachers are pursuing the teaching reform on English Rhetoric in three areas： To change concept, rebuild the position of English Rhetoric in teachers＇ and students＇ hearts; To reform the teaching methods, use classification, comparison between similar figures of speech, contrast in two languages, examples and other methods in teaching; To improve teaching mode, take the interdisciplinary approach. Through the teaching reform on English Rhetoric, not only teachers and students in ethnic minority colleges and universities pay more attention to this subject and use these figures of speech in writing and speaking accurately, but also ethnic minority students＇ English level has been improved for society demands.
