语言和文化互相依赖 ,互相制约。外语专业的学生若只学语言而不学其文化 ,将无法真正掌握这门语言 ,也无法正确运用。文化差异决定语言差异、导致语用差异及价值观念的差异。因此 ,文化教学应无时不刻地渗透到语言教学中去。同时中国学生还应认真学习本族语文化 ,提高文化自我意识以增强对英美文化的敏感性和洞察力。 Language and culture depend on each other and restrict each other. Foreign language students who only learn the language but not their culture will not be able to really grasp the language and can not use it correctly. Cultural differences determine language differences, resulting in pragmatic differences and differences in values. Therefore, culture teaching should be infiltrated into language teaching all the time. At the same time, Chinese students should also conscientiously study native language culture and enhance their cultural self-awareness so as to enhance their sensitivity and insight to Anglo-American culture.
