Conceptual metaphor is one of the important topics in cognitive linguistics,the study of which is significant theoretically and practically.Based on the analysis of conceptual metaphor,this paper explores the application of conceptual metaphor in foreign language teaching,and studies the practical ideas and op- erating procedures in a number of examples,focusing on two theoretical issues:the feasibility of conceptual metaphor in foreign language teaching and two types of teaching approaches;four specific practical issues: word teaching,syntactic analysis,text understanding,and the similarities and differences of“teaching”and“learning”cognitions.
