Abstract

At present, English teaching in China's colleges and universities pays more and more attention to cultural teaching, however, the current foreign language teaching favours the interpretation of the target culture, thus neglecting the introduction of the mother tongue culture, and lacks the penetration and dissemination of the Chinese culture, which results in many students not being able to express the Chinese tradition and folklore content in English, reducing the effectiveness of intercultural communication, and forming the "Chinese cultural aphasia", and this phenomenon is not an isolated phenomenon. As a result, many students are unable to express Chinese traditions and folklore in English, which reduces the effectiveness of intercultural communication and forms "Chinese cultural aphasia". Based on the English teaching in colleges and universities, this paper analyses the causes of "Chinese cultural aphasia" in the process of English teaching in colleges and universities, and puts forward some practical countermeasures in the light of the actual situation of English teaching in colleges and universities.
