To work with Chinas status in the world consistent. However, the current College English Teaching and the requirement far apart. Therefore, English teaching should fully understand the important role of Chinese culture in the teaching materials, curriculum, teaching methods and the quality of teachers has made improvements, so as to complete the task of teaching English. Thesis Keywords: Chinese culture, English teaching, teaching materials, curriculum Learning a foreign language for the purpose of communication, communication is based on the culture. . The process is two-way communication: on one hand, through the language of this bridge, to learn foreign advanced science and technology and human knowledge, as I used to improve the quality of the nation so that the forest in the world to survive and develop, on the other hand, through the foreign language to their own national and cultural tradition of excellent introduction to the world, the further development of the world to make their own contribution. First, to enhance the learning of Chinese traditional values and communication Chinas long and rich tradition of values, the history of civilization in the world, occupies a very important position. Confucianism, Taoism, Chinese formed the moral foundation of our behavior thousands of years the foundation work. “Moderation”, “with people “ harmony, “and so deep-rooted values in our hearts. In modern times, China opened the doors, the Chinese nation and the nations of the world access to increased Chinese virtues and values are widely spread, a growing number of East , the people of Western nations like the Chinese culture of “Chinese culture” by the peoples attention and respect. With Chinas peaceful rise, Chinas increasing influence in the world. Now, the “Confucius Institute” popular in the world people in learning Chinese time, naturally influenced by Chinese culture, by the impact of Chinas traditional values. But with such a situation does not match is that the current college English teaching in China among the Chinese culture and little knowledge of traditional values, almost zero, the result is, among young people, keen on “Christmas”, “Valentines Day” but do not know, “Dragon”, “Mid-Autumn Festival” are. According to reports, some youth even Mencius translated as “Meng Hughes.” is to say that after years of college English teaching reform of the English students capacity is indeed greatly improved, and foreign exchange easier. But in terms of English to introduce Chinese culture but appeared to be inadequate, lack of knowledge, expression is unclear. This is our current status in the world which does not comply. English has two purposes: one in English, absorbing advanced things in other countries, on the other hand, will be introduced to the traditional elite abroad, so that Chinas further integration into the world, and the world with the progress. for now, foreign language achievement of teaching the former over the latter. Therefore, English teaching to take on greater strengthening of traditional Chinese culture of learning and communication tasks. Second, strengthen the study of Chinese history The Chinese nation has a long history and colorful, with five thousand years of civilization is the history of the worlds only fault is no nation. And true understanding of Chinese history and contribute to further understanding of current China, a better understanding of Chinas peaceful rise not harmful to any country, it will only benefit. Industrious and courageous Chinese nation, creating a brilliant civilization, and to world civilization and development have made great contributions. Ancient of the “four inventions” to promote the progress of the Chinese and the world, the traditional Chinese medicine, philosophy and literature, ethics form a “Chinese culture”, for a long time affect the people surrounding countries and regions. The Chinese civilization is the treasure house of world civilization and an important part of them. The Chinese nation is a long-suffering, tough and unyielding nation. In Chinese history, there have been times of peace and harmony, and there have been continuous war, with brilliant success, but also to endure the humiliation of foreign national oppression. When we strong, We do not bully the weak, as we have been ravaged by time, our perseverance, stick to the Chinese people for their valuable qualities. Chinese nation is a multi-ethnic family, and her form is a long history of development of this nation inseparable. In the development of the Chinese nation has long, common struggle of people of all nationalities, united, casting a great Chinese the history of civilization. It is the diversity of Chinese history before the formation of China today. History is the past, it is a mirror of today. understanding of Chinese history, will help foreign people to understand todays China and Chinese people. As to promote Chinese culture abroad, the mission of the college English teaching, whether it is the task of teaching, teaching content, or teaching methods, and are not related to relevant content on Chinese culture. At school did not learn about this knowledge and expression Our Foreign university graduates how to take the initiative to promote their civilization in history? reposted elsewhere in the paper for free download Third, to strengthen the understanding of the status quo in China. spread the significance of Chinas peaceful rise At present, China is peaceful rise, it is an indisputable fact. For the fact that different people of a different point of view, from a different purpose, different attitude and take a different behavior. Chinas rise is peaceful and does not pose any threat to people and countries can only make a contribution to the world. Joined the WTO, Chinas economy has been and the world, and basically realize economic integration with the world. Chinas development is bound to promote the development of world economy, which in the end of 2008 from the world financial crisis has been fully reflected. Chinas rise, hegemony is never the purpose. Chinese and other ethnic groups get along with the idea of a peaceful coexistence and common development . Some countries, from ulterior motives, trying to render the rise of China is a threat to the world, there is no reason. in the development of China today, the College English teaching in this area should increase the content of actively introduce foreign own initiative significance for Chinas development, so that people can understand Chinas situation further understand the development of the Chinese people and Chinese people of the world significance. Fourth, strengthen the teaching content. The courage to play college English teaching in the glorious task of external publicity In view of the above, we see the heavy task of English teaching sex. For the international exchange of students when the language “Chinese Culture aphasia” phenomenon, college English teaching reform should be carried out in the following areas. 1. Construction Materials As Chinas current college English teaching materials for the introduction of Chinese culture too, teaching materials it is very important. So, in building materials, we must greatly increase the material to promote Chinese culture and increase the use of students which reflects the active Glossary of Chinese culture to form a sense of language, so that students can land the English channel to promote Chinese culture. materials should be listed in Chinese Literature and Culture bibliography, or the preparation of the main materials of Chinese literature and culture of supporting materials, as the students after reading purposes, cultural content about Chinese literature Chinese and English materials were compiled be used also be used in English style. 2. Curriculum Current college English teaching curriculum is divided into two aspects of reading and writing and speaking. To the Chinese culture into college English teaching, curriculum should be diversified, it should add some lectures or elective courses. On the one hand, the curriculum should reflect the Chinese philosophy, history, religious characteristics, on the whole students an understanding of Chinese culture, on the other hand, with the curriculum reform, creation of Chinese culture and foreign cultures contrast, students in the understanding of Chinese culture at the same time, comparison of foreign cultures, and develop their cross-cultural awareness and intercultural communication skills. 3.

In addition, in film terms, CCTV9 is for introduce Chinese culture to the world an important window for China, many Chinese movies and television programs are also equipped with in Chinese and English subtitles. These are valuable resources to the learning resources. 4. Teacher Quality 80% of Chinas English teacher at the age of 28 to 48 years of age, is in the exam-oriented education environment to grow up, their own cultural literacy in China is insufficient, although English skills are good, but because of their knowledge structure defects To complete the task of spreading Chinese culture, but also strengthening of their own. Therefore, to enhance Chinese culture to learn English teachers urgently needed. college English teacher first must have a knowledge of the English language, comprehensive ability, professional knowledge, but also need to have considerable double-cultural or multi-cultural knowledge. Second, “<College English Curriculum Requirements>> specific needs of college English teachers and foreign cultures more complete assessment of knowledge and ability of Chinese and foreign cultures. in teaching practice may use comparative law, comparative English and Chinese languages and culture, so that the learners have direct experience of two cultures, in the teaching process, teachers can about the purpose of language and cultural background knowledge are introduced, and the native culture with the appropriate comparison, so that students understand the similarities and differences between two cultural phenomena , students of cross-cultural awareness. while actively guide students, exchange students awareness of cultural equality, so that they actively promote foreign relations of our fine culture.
