摘要

With the economic integration and acceleration of the globalization process, China has an enormous demand for translation talents. Currently, college English translation teaching can't meet the domestic demands for translation talents. In order to improve the shortage of translation talents, promote the development of college English translation teaching, and cultivate inter-disciplinary and applied talents, this paper makes the investigation into 150 sophomores (non-English majors), and explores some extant problems in college English translation teaching, ranging from unreasonable syllabus, old teaching models to students' weak cross-cultural awareness. Therefore, it also puts forward a series of pragmatic suggestions, including the implementation of syllabus, the application of innovated teaching model, the concerns of the university and the improvement of students' cross-cultural awareness and so on.
