《大學(xué)應(yīng)用英語》教材以教育部制定文件《大學(xué)英語課程教學(xué)要求》(以下簡稱《教學(xué)要求》)中的一般要求為教材編寫主要依據(jù),涵蓋了《教學(xué)要求》中提出的大學(xué)英語詞匯(含積極詞匯和構(gòu)詞法)教學(xué)內(nèi)容、交際場景常用表達(dá)方式教學(xué)內(nèi)容,以及聽、說、讀、寫、譯等各方面語言技能教學(xué)內(nèi)容。同時,考慮到三本院校非英語專業(yè)本科生的英語入學(xué)水平和實際情況,在教材第一冊和第二冊中加入了基礎(chǔ)語言知識、各分項基礎(chǔ)語言技能和基礎(chǔ)學(xué)習(xí)方法項目,以期幫助學(xué)生進(jìn)一步夯實基礎(chǔ)。
《大學(xué)應(yīng)用英語》(College Applied English)是由北京城市學(xué)院和高等教育出版社共同規(guī)劃、設(shè)計、編寫的一套大學(xué)英語教材。
一、編寫依據(jù)
《大學(xué)應(yīng)用英語》全面貫徹教育部《大學(xué)英語課程教學(xué)要求》。編者在教材規(guī)劃、編寫和試用過程中緊密結(jié)合《大學(xué)英語課程教學(xué)要求》對詞匯、聽力、口語、閱讀、寫作、翻譯等語言知識和語言技能提出的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)和要求,對新建本科院校學(xué)生英語學(xué)習(xí)特點和需求進(jìn)行了深入研究。教材吸取、借鑒了數(shù)十年來國際國內(nèi)二語習(xí)得、大學(xué)英語教學(xué)的豐碩成果,參照北京城市學(xué)院建校以來大學(xué)英語一線教學(xué)的豐富經(jīng)驗,充分體現(xiàn)了“實用為本、有效為主、適合為度”的教材編寫原則。教材以《大學(xué)英語課程教學(xué)要求》中的“一般要求”為最終能力培養(yǎng)目標(biāo),并按照教育部相關(guān)文件的精神、結(jié)合學(xué)生語言應(yīng)用方面的實際情況,將“聽說能力”作為語言技能培養(yǎng)的重要目標(biāo)。
二、教學(xué)對象
《大學(xué)應(yīng)用英語》以新建本科院校的非英語專業(yè)本科學(xué)生為主要教學(xué)對象。教材充分考慮該類生源在英語學(xué)習(xí)上的語言水平、學(xué)習(xí)特點和應(yīng)用需求,將夯實語言基礎(chǔ)知識、提高各項語言技能與增強(qiáng)綜合語言應(yīng)用能力設(shè)定為總體目標(biāo)。教材將各種語言媒介方式與教學(xué)活動相結(jié)合,旨在提高學(xué)生對英語學(xué)習(xí)的興趣、掌握有效的英語學(xué)習(xí)策略、并培養(yǎng)自主學(xué)習(xí)的良好習(xí)慣。
