Abstract There’s a broad recognition that English language teaching can’t be separated from culture teaching. But, culture teaching is still limited to the input of western culture in current China’s English teaching. Chinese culture input has received only scant attention or even has been ignored. Through the analysis of relevant literature and the current situation of culture teaching in English major’s classroom, this paper expounds the important role of Chinese culture input for English majors and then puts forward some relevant suggestions. In fact, Chinese culture input is an integral part of culture teaching for English majors to train high-level English talents. Hopefully, this paper can make Chinese culture input receive the attention it deserves in English language teaching.

I. Introduction

It’s undisputable that language teaching can’t be separated from culture teaching in light of the close relationship between language and culture. In addition, with the increasing popularity of international communication, the cultivation of students’ intercultural communication competence becomes more and more urgent. Thus, culture input must be organically integrated into foreign language teaching, and English language teaching is no exception. Since the late 1980s, culture teaching has received increasing attention in China. More and more scholars and educators realized the importance of culture input in English language teaching. The good news is that culture teaching has achieved some good results in China. Nevertheless, the achievement can only be seen in the introduction of target culture, especially the culture input of America and Britain. In fact, culture input in English language teaching is currently suffering a serious imbalance. At the same time, students’ intercultural communication competence is also not optimistic, and English majors are no exception. The majority of English majors are unable to introduce Chinese culture fluently and properly in the process of intercultural communication because of their deficient understanding of Chinese culture.
