Abstract

English is a kind of cultural manifestation, so the integration of language with culture is of feasibility to some extent. The purpose of colleges and universities to offer tourism English course is to provide a better tourism service for foreign tourists and promote them to understand China's history and culture, and then carry forward the traditional culture of China. However, Chinese cultural elements are short in the tourism English teaching in Chinese colleges and universities currently, so that it is difficult to give full play to the real function of tourism English in the practical application, and students are unable to introduce Chinese culture to foreign tourists in English, and finally the cross-cultural communication barriers emerge. In order to improve the practicability of tourism English, it is necessary to exert the teaching of Chinese culture in the tourism English teaching in colleges and universities. In this paper, the application of Chinese culture to the tourism English teaching in colleges and universities is specifically analyzed.
