Based on the proportion of Chinese history contents in British history textbooks,the statistics of the frequency of key words and the analysis of textbook contents,the following characteristics of the images of China in British history textbooks can be concluded,namely,the glorious ancient China as a mysterious country,the modern China with a century of humiliation is a decadent empire,red China,the revolutionary years of red pilgrimage and personality worship and the contemporary China as an awakened dragon,with rapid development misunderstood as"the threat of China".The images of China act as a mirror in which the British see themselves.The images of China in British history textbooks reflect more about the imaginations and expectations of British rather than the reality of China.China's international images are the historical product of the long-term game of comprehensive national strength between China and foreign countries.China needs to establish cultural self-confidence and cultural self-consciousness,actively tell China's story,spread its images to the world,let the international community know the real China.
