随着我国加入WT0,越来越多的国内企业参与到国际竞争中来,用国际通用的语言思考、工作、交流的能力也越来越受到重视。这样一种能力也成为我国各类人才参与竞争的一种有效工具。**教育机构、各类院校以及一些主要的教材出版单位一直在思考,如何顺应这一发展潮流,推动各层次人员通过学习来获取这种能力。双语教学就是这种背景下的一种尝试。
双语教学在我国主要指汉语和国际通用的英语教学。事实上,双语教学在我国教育界已经不是一个陌生的词汇了,从其诞生的那天起就被包围在人们的赞成与反对声中,即便如此,双语教学的规模和影响都在原有的基础上不断扩大,且呈大发展之势。而由于我国长期缺乏讲第二语言(包括英语)的环境,开展双语教学面临特殊的困难,因此选用合适的教材就成为双语教学成功与否的一个重要问题。
尽管国内外对双语教学褒贬不一,对国际贸易学科而言,用英文进行阅读和交流是迅速获取专业信息、掌握当代国际贸易发展状况、进行国际交流和合作的前提。国际贸易双语教学具有集国际贸易理论及外贸实务和外贸专业英语于一体的特点,通过双语授课,促使学生提高使用英文进行专业阅读和交流的水平,使他们能够适应经济全球化的需求,有利于培
