Abstract

The unity between man and nature, as is touched upon in literature, is a classic concept in traditional Chinese philosophy. This paper, starting from the proposal of the concept, after briefing the studies in related fields, elucidates the important role it plays in modern course design, focusing on how to integrate it into the practice of college English teaching, concerning the specific steps of course construction: top-level design, selection of teaching materials, appropriate teaching methods, and improvement of evaluation system, for students to deeply understand the essence of traditional Chinese culture in the process of language learning, for the purpose of cultivating their own cultural confidence to better shoulder the task of inheriting Chinese culture. The teaching practice substantiates the effectiveness of the course reform, making up for the shortcoming of traditional English education and providing a certain reference for the integration of English learning into the education of traditional Chinese culture.
