Research on the Pathways to Enhance the Ability of English Majors in Chinese Universities to "Tell China's Stories Well"

In the context of global cultural dissemination, "telling China's story well" has become a crucial strategy for enhancing the international influence of Chinese culture. English majors in Chinese universities, with their linguistic advantages, are key agents in disseminating China's stories. However, their capacity-building faces practical challenges, including insufficient understanding of cultural connotations, lack of cross-cultural communication skills, and limited practical opportunities and methods. By analyzing the current situation and challenges faced by English majors, this paper proposes a trinity pathway for enhancing their abilities. The study argues that through systematic and collaborative cultivation, English majors in China can better fulfill their role as cultural communicators, leveraging their professional English skills to present a truthful, multidimensional, and comprehensive image of China, thereby promoting Chinese culture globally.

Abstract

In the context of global cultural dissemination, "telling China's story well" has become a crucial strategy for enhancing the international influence of Chinese culture. English majors in Chinese universities, with their linguistic advantages, are key agents in disseminating China's stories. However, their capacity-building faces practical challenges, including insufficient understanding of cultural connotations, lack of cross-cultural communication skills, and limited practical opportunities and methods. By analyzing the current situation and challenges faced by English majors, this paper proposes a trinity pathway for enhancing their abilities. The study argues that through systematic and collaborative cultivation, English majors in China can better fulfill their role as cultural communicators, leveraging their professional English skills to present a truthful, multidimensional, and comprehensive image of China, thereby promoting Chinese culture globally.
