Researching into Problems of Cross-Cultural Narrative in College English Speaking Contestants Telling Chinese Stories
Speaking is the art of language,the track of voice,and English speaking is an important means to tell Chinese stories.This study analyzes the weak points in college English speaking contestants telling Chinese stories through interviews with 3 international teachers,3 tutors,and 8 contestants.The problems identified include contestants focusing only on presenting"information"without considering whether this"information"is meaningful or not,contestants having a limited perspective and positioning on"voicing China",and contestants lacking narrative and argumentative abilities in English speeches.To enhance the ability of English speaking contestants telling Chinese stories,contestants are expected to have a comprehensive understanding of the international situation;stories should reflect authenticity with contemporary culture and inclusive narratives,avoiding excessive rhetoric.
