在英语教学中,老师可以充分利用母语文化的正迁移和参照作用,使其达到完善英语教学内容,改进教学方法的目的。要实现其功能就要做到摒弃外语教学的惟工具理性价值观;兼容并包母语文化与外语文化于教材;培养教师的跨文化意识作这三个方面的内容。 In English teaching, teachers can make full use of the positive transfer and reference of native language culture to achieve the purpose of improving English teaching content and improving teaching methods. In order to realize its function, it is necessary to abandon the rational values ​​of instrumental teaching in foreign language teaching. It is compatible with both the mother tongue culture and the foreign language culture in teaching materials and the teachers’ intercultural awareness.
