【Abstract】 with the deepening of China’s reform and opening up and the expansion of international exchanges， it is increasingly important to understand and study European culture. In recent years， the examination papers for postgraduate students also show more emphasis on European culture. I think European culture is important for learning English， which is the requirement of The Times and a reflection of keeping pace with The Times.

EnglishIn reading English books and communicating with English speakers， Chinese college students who are learning English often find that the lack of European cultural knowledge adds many difficulties. There are countless allusions， famous sayings， idioms， people’s names， place names and so on in the English language， which come from the philosophy， literature， historical works of ancient Greece and Rome， the Hebrew bible， artistic creation in the Renaissance period， or involve important events and figures in ideology， science and technology， politics and society. If these do not know much， reading may not understand all， to talk is difficult to smooth. Once you have more knowledge， you will not only improve your understanding， but you will also learn language better because you learn it through culture. Therefore， some English enthusiasts hold some background reports from time to time， asking teachers or foreign visitors to introduce the whole Europe or one country’s society or other conditions in foreign languages， as a supplement to the language course. This method is reasonable， but has the disadvantage that the content is often not systematic， incoherent between lectures， students have no requirements， their harvest is not specific. Language is the carrier of culture， cultural influences and restricts the language communication， both in full accord. Cultural background should learn throughout the course. The English study of the primary purpose of learning English is to cultivate the students’ ability of intercultural communication. So in the teaching pay attention to reveal the cultural content of the language is very important. If each of the students are learning English can be planned and systematic teaching about basic knowledge of the European culture. The necessity and method of mastering the cultural connotation of language can improve students’ English learning efficiency and cross-cultural communication. Learn about European culture and spell the names of places， people， books， events， etc. Study Greek and Roman culture; Christianity and its bible; The middle ages. Renaissance and reformation; In the 17th century. The enlightenment; Romanticism; Marxism and Darwinism; Realism; Modernism and others， for English lovers， can make some comparisons between Chinese culture and European culture; Help students put the development of European culture in the perspective of world history. Cultural knowledge and cultural accomplishment are conducive to the improvement of people’s temperament， taste， morality， value standards and so on， as well as the improvement of people’s quality.
The way of life in English includes social life， such as government and social organization， mode of production and distribution， employment and welfare， education， scientific research， religion and health， etc. It also includes private life， such as the family. All these can be regarded as cultural. Different national languages are born in different national cultural soil and develop with the development of the national culture. Therefore， people who do not understand the culture of a nation cannot learn the language of the nation， let alone the people who do not understand the nation， because culture is essentially a person. Without a deep understanding of European culture， there is no real study of English language and European and American literature.
