【摘要】 “中国文化失语”现象已受到外语界关注多年,然而却至今未能得到有效的改善。随着中国文化走向世界,大批留学生来华学习,中国文化在英语教学中的重要性正日益彰显。在大学英语教学中导入中国文化,对中国学生而言,可以提高他们的英语表达能力和跨文化交际能力;对非英语国家来华留学生而言,在增加他们对中国文化了解的同时,也促进了他们英语水平的提高和跨文化交际意识的培养。在理论探讨的基础上,本文以中国大学生和非英语国家来华留学生两个群体为研究对象,进行“中国文化”英语教学的对比研究,探讨大学英语教学中中国文化导入的模式。教学实验由两个部分组成,分别针对留学生和中国学生。对留学生的教学实验分为两个阶段:每阶段在实施教学后,通过阶段性反馈、总结和评价来分析学生对中国文化知识的理解掌握程度。运用SPSS13.0对两个阶段的实验数据进行了描述统计、配对样本T检验、双因素方差分析和独立样本T检验,以检验教学效果,探讨性别、专业、地域等因素的影响。对中国学生的教学实验则由三个环节组成:一、课前调查,包括问卷调查和能力测试,旨在调查中国文化知识水平、中国文化英语表达能力以及相关状况;二、教学实施,即根据教学目标来设计、实施教学;三、课后调查,即在课程结束后进行后继调查和测试。实验结束后,对前后调查数据进行了描述统计、定性分析和Wilcoxon检验,来检验教学设计是否有效,并了解学生对课程教学的态度和意见。统计结果显示,对中国学生和留学生所进行的教学设计均取得了较好的效果。在实验的基础上,作者从教学目标、教学内容、教学方法、教学过程和教学评价五个方面对中外学生进行了对比分析,发现了其中的相似和不同之处,从而构建出了分别针对中国学生和来华留学生的两种教学模式,并探讨了有助于双方交流互惠的双向教学模式,进而提出了相关建议,以促进对中外学生的中国文化教学。

【Abstract】 The phenomenon of“Chinese culture aphasia”has been concerned about by the foreign language educators for several years, but it has not yet been meliorated effectively. Along with the spreading of Chinese culture to the outside world and an increasing number of international students coming to study in China, Chinese culture is playing a more important role in ELT. As for Chinese students, Chinese culture instruction in college ELT is helpful for improving their English language competence and intercultural communicative competence. As to international students from nonnative-English-speaking countries to China, it can foster their understanding of Chinese culture and English language competence as well as their intercultural communicative awareness.Based on the theoretical framework, the author conducts a comparative study of Chinese culture teaching in English on two groups of subjects: Chinese students and international students who are nonnative-English-speakers, aiming at exploring the instructional models of Chinese culture in college ELT. The research consists of two teaching experiments respectively for the two groups. The experiment for international students consists of two phases. Their mastery and understanding of Chinese culture are analyzed by the reflections, summarization and evaluation in each phase. SPSS 13.0 is used to analyze the experimental data in the two phases by the means of descriptive statistics, Paired-Samples Test, Two-Way ANOVA, and Independent-Samples T-test so as to test the teaching effectiveness and explore the influence of some factors such as gender, major and region. The experiment for Chinese students is comprised of three parts: pre-course survey, which is conducted to investigate the students’mastery and English expressiveness of Chinese culture and some related conditions by a questionnaire and a test paper; implementation of the instruction designed according to the teaching objectives; post-course survey by the succeeding questionnaire and test paper. Descriptive statistics, qualitative study and Wilcoxon Test are used to analyze the experimental data of Chinese students to test the effectiveness of the instructional design and to find out the students’attitudes and feelings about the course and instruction. The statistical results show that the instructional design for Chinese and international students are both effective.Based on the experiments, the author gives a comparative analysis between the two groups on teaching aims, teaching contents, teaching methods, teaching process and teaching evaluation. The author constructs two instructional models respectively for Chinese and international students, designs a bilateral instructional model helpful for improving communication and reciprocity of both sides, and puts forward some corresponding suggestions, so as to promote Chinese culture teaching in college ELT for Chinese and international students.
