3.1 Principles of Culture Instruction
First, culture teaching should serve to improve learners’ intercultural communication ability. The main purpose of learning English is to communicate with foreigners. But misunderstandings are often unavoidable in conversations because of different culture backgrounds; therefore, English learners should know a certain amount of English culture and use it appropriately according to the need of communication. When teachers instruct culture in the class, they should aim to improve students’ ability to use their culture knowledge in communication with foreigners.
Second, culture instruction should be divided into several phases. Culture teaching should be carried out in the condition of students’ age and cognitive competence and slowly deep into complex culture knowledge. In the beginning of foreign language teaching, teachers need to make students have a basic and general understanding of English culture and the differences between Chinese and English culture. And the culture knowledge in this phase should relate to students’ daily activity and cultivate their interests to learn English. In a higher grade, teachers should lead students to a larger scope of English culture to broaden their view of culture and enhance their sensibility and criticism on the differences and similarities between Chinese and English culture. Then, it can improve their intercultural communicative competence.
