On Chinese Culture Infiltration in English General Education

Yanhong FANG

Abstract


English education is an integral part of general education, with humanities course as its core. Among them, Chinese culture is an important part. However, over-emphasis on English language and culture gives rise to “Chinese culture aphasia” in China. Therefore, it is necessary and significant to integrate Chinese culture into English teaching. Chinese cultural infiltration contributes to Chinese culture dissemination, and strengthens cultural identity.
