Abstract
The theoretical bases for the thesis are cross-cultural foreign language education theory, systemic education theory and multimedia-assisted English teaching theory. At first, the thesis summarizes and analyzes every unit involving cultural knowledge in College English textbook Oxford English used in Shanghai at present, demonstrating the feasibility of culture teaching in the elementary stage of College English. Then based on systemic teaching theories, the thesis analyzes teaching aim, teaching demand, teaching environment, teaching content, teaching strategies, evaluative strategies and implementation of culture teaching. Next, the thesis designs specific courses to match daily teaching activities by way of collecting culture teaching materials, designing culture teaching content and relevant teaching strategies. When designing specific courses, I take advice from experts and teachers on the front, develop three teaching cases and use courseware for teaching practice.

Summary
Culture teaching in foreign languages has developed by leaps and bounds in educational field. After investigation, I find that most culture teaching research is confined to university because some educational researchers think it is not necessary for culture teaching in elementary stage. They think that College English learning is a basic stage in which they need focus on accuracy of pronunciation, tone, grammar and accumulation of vocabulary. Many educators in elementary stage think highly of culture teaching, recent research has been still confined to theory [1]. Due to difficulties in culture teaching practice in elementary stage, the thesis presents some problems of culture teaching in College English and gives some preliminary solutions in the hope of sharing and seeking for more solutions
