论中西思维差异与英语写作教学

中西思维模式的差异本质上是文化差异的表现。中国人传统偏于形象思维，善于整体观察，思维内向、求同；西方人注重抽象思维，善于逻辑分析，思维外向、求异，等等。这些差异反映在中国学生的英文写作中，他们常用汉语思维模式迂回展开思路，喜欢引用谚语、名言等。针对这种问题，教师在教学中应积极探索文化导入的有效方法。

Chinese-western Thinking Differences and English Writing Teaching

The Chinese - western thinking differences are actually the representations of the cultural differences. The Chinese put emphasis on concrete and intrinsic thinking, integrative observation and seeking sameness, while the westerners lay stress on abstract and extrinsic thinking, logical analyses and seeking differences. The Chinese students tend to write in the circular way, which reflects the Chinese thinking way, and prefer to quote the proverbs and famous remarks. Thus, in dealing with the problems, it is important for the English ation. teachers to explore some effective methods of enculturation.
