Abstract

 English education is regarded both as a linguistic tool and a cultural quality course. As a special cultural quality of the course, cultural awareness training is its inherent requirements. However, for a long time, Chinese English teaching has considered it a "tool" as the guidance; therefore it has been taught as a basic knowledge of English language teaching that it ignores human nature and university students ‘cultural awareness training. In such a case, an investigation about the English education teaching and cultural awareness training situation was made. Under this situation, exploring an effective channel for cultivating student’s cultural awareness and enhancing the effectiveness of English education teaching is particularly urgent. This thesis is divided into three parts: the first part includes an investigation and a study of the lack in cultural awareness training in English education teaching. In the survey we found that in English education teaching there exists a serious lack of cultural awareness training. It mainly reflected in English education textbooks, English teachers ‘cultural awareness and the students themselves, in classroom teaching activities and teaching evaluation. In the second part, based on the study, a research was carried out to explore the necessity of cultural awareness training in English education teaching.
