An Exploration on Translation Teaching and Learning for Undergraduate English Majors

The extending of Chinese internationalization proposes higher requests on the translation markets, which means more and more high-qualified translators and interpreters are needed to meet the market demands. However, the traditional"teacher and text-centered"translation teaching methods can not equip the students with skillful and practical ability to satisfy the requirements of the society. Therefore, this paper explores a new translation teaching model which suggests more efficient and quicker ways to cultivate available interpreters and translators for the translation market.
