英语专业大规模压缩的危机已来临。面对英语专业语言文学方向的单一定位所带来的危机,外语界提出了“外语+”的复合型人才培养方法,但实施因面临种种挑战难以落地。鉴于此,在“新工科、新医科、新农科、新文科”建设背景下,提出英语专业下面设置专门用途英语方向是一个可行的建议,即用语言学中的专门用途英语理论去研究被交叉学科的知识和内容是如何用语言构建和传播的,而非“外语+”的复合型人才培养方向,即用英语作为工具去学习其他学科的知识和内容。设置专门用途英语方向是一种真正的跨学科途径,不仅有效解决了英语专业的危机,而且为培养语言服务人才和推进翻译硕士/博士专业改革以及大学英语教学改革起到了关键性的作用。 |
英文摘要: |
The crisis of a big cut in the enrollment for the English major is increasingly serious. Faced with the crisis brought by the major’ single orientation such as linguistics and literature, the foreign language circles propose an approach to the development of interdisciplinary talents (students with both foreign language proficiency and knowledge of a particular discipline). The proposal, however, could not be effectively accepted as it encounters many problems. The present study proposes that under the background of “Four New” (New Engineering, New Medical, New Agricultural, and New Liberal Arts) construction, ESP (English for Specific Purposes) might be a new direction under the English major, as it applies functional linguistics to the study of how knowledge of other disciplines is constructed and disseminated. Compared with the interdisciplinary approach, it could be effectively implemented without the restriction of language teacher’ knowledge about the target disciplines. The new direction of ESP under the English major could not only resolve its crisis, but also effectively contribute to language services and the reform of College English teaching. |
