Abstract

Intercultural communication is a kind of interactive behavior. For a long time, college English teaching in China puts one-sided emphasis on the transmission of English culture, but ignores the teaching of Chinese native culture, leading to the learners’ lack of Chinese traditional culture. What’s worse, college students are unable to express and spread Chinese culture in English, which causes the phenomenon of “Chinese culture aphasia”. This paper attempts to study the current situation and causes of “Chinese culture aphasia” in order to elaborate the countermeasures for the lack of Chinese native culture in college English teaching.
