Abstract
Language and culture are closely correlated to each other and college English is supposed to be a course that covers both the language skills and the transmission of culture. Besides, cultural learning should not only be confined to the culture of the target language as it is important to integrate the culture of the native language. However, Chinese excellent traditional culture is unbalanced or even missing in college English teaching activities, aptly described as “Chinese cultural aphasia”, which is not conducive to the cultivation of students’ cross-cultural competence. This article analyzes the reasons for the lack of Chinese traditional culture in college English teaching, points out the importance of integrating Chinese traditional culture into college English teaching, and proposes specific and practical ways to promote integration.
