英语教学中跨文化交际能力的培养

跨文化交际是指本族语者与非本族语者之间的交际,在语言和文化背景方面有差异的人们之间的交际。不同的民族所处的生态、物质、社会及宗教等环境不同,因而各自的语言环境产生了不同的语言习惯、社会文化、风土人情等语境因素。在英语教学中,这些文化的差异对语言的制约性表现得更为明显。英汉两种语言的不同形式、内部系统和语用条件影响着语言的使用,有时虽然用词恰当,语法正确,但表达却不得体,从而引起误会,影响信息的获得和交际。因此在外语教学中,要将文化融入语言教学,使文化渗透到语言知识教学,语言技能学习、语言能力培养各个环节当中,培养学生跨文化交际的能力。

On the Cultivation of Intercultural Communicative Competence in English Teaching

Intercultural communication means the communication between native speakers and non-native speakers, that is to say, the communication between people who have differences in language and cultural background. Different nations have different ecological, material, social and religious environments, and thus have different habits, social culture, customs and other contextual factors in their respective language environment. The restriction on the language influenced by the cultural differences is more obvious in English Teaching. Different forms, internal systems and pragmatic conditions of different languages affect the use of the language and sometimes can lead to misunderstanding. Thus it is necessary to combine culture with English Teaching, cultivating students＇ intercultural communicative competence.
