基于经济全球化和国家安全战略的需要,美国外语教学委员会在1996年出台了《21世纪外语学习标准》,该文件是美国国内最具权威性和指导性的语言教学基准文件。文章依据我国最新的《大学英语教学指南》,结合该标准的具体内容,提出我国农业高校英语教学新模式,即创建真实有意义的交际情境;增强学生的文化感知力和理解力;加强学生对多元语言文化的对比;促进语言学习与其他学科内容的有机融合;组织多种多样的线上线下社区活动。

American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages published Standards for Foreign Language Learning in the 21^(st)Century in 1996 to meet the demands of economic globalization and state security.This doc­ument is the most authoritative and instructive one which guides the language teaching throughout the country.Based on the latest National College English Teaching Guidelines and integrating them with the standards,this paper puts forward the brand-new English teaching model in the agricultural university.This model is character­ized by creating true meaningful communicative contexts,increasing students'perception and understanding of cul­tures,enhancing students'consciousness of contrasting multiple languages and cultures,promoting the combination of language learning and other subjects,organizing diversity of community activities online and offline.
