大学英语听力教学中的跨文化意识培养

Intercultural Communication Cultivation in College Listening Teaching

听力理解是一个极端复杂的思维过程,学习者不仅要运用原有的语言知识,还需要把个人经历、文化背景及其他文化知识作为其中的重要环节。因此,在听力教学过程中,教师需要有意识、有目的、有步骤地培养学生跨文化意识和跨文化能力。现有的大学英语听力教学模式无法满足上述条件,因此笔者建议可以利用以跨文化交际知识为主的英语教材,开展主题式教学、案例式教学,增加学生参与感,有效提高学生的跨文化交际水平。

Listening comprehension is an extremely complicated process, in which the learners not only utilize their original lan- guage knowledge, but also their personal experience, cultural background and other cultural knowledge. Therefore, in the listening teaching process, the teachers need to cultivate students＇ intercultural communication capability in a conscious, intentional and gradual way. While the current listening teaching strategy could not fulfill such a need. As a result, the author suggests that we should carry out theme -based teaching and case -study teaching based on the intercultural communication related textbooks, in order to enhance students＇ participation and improve their intercultural communication capability.
