【内容简介】

随着经济全球化进程的加快和科学技术突飞猛进的发展，培养具有国际竞争能力、全面发展、高素质的人才成为时代的需求。英语是国际上普遍采用的交际语言；熟练使用英语是国际化人才的基本素质。与此同时，随着我国现代化建设的需要，随着改革开放的深入发展，我国人民同世界各国的交往日益频繁，英语交际能力在对外交流中的作用显得越来越重要。
为适应我国高等教育新的发展形势，深化教学改革，提高教学质量，满足新时期国家对人才培养的需要，2007年9月教育部在试点的基础上正式颁布《大学英语课程教学要求》。《教学要求》规定，大学英语课程的教学目标是：培养学生的英语综合应用能力，特别是听说能力，使他们在今后工作和社会交往中能用英语有效地进行口头和书面的信息交流。因此，提高英语交际能力既是时代的需要，也是众多英语学习者梦寐以求的目标。
