ABSTRACT Culture has long proven to be inextricably intertwined with language and has attracted a plethora of studies in the realm of applied linguistics. However, its representation in textbooks, English textbooks in particular, has only recently been touched on. The reason behind this belated attempt lies in the fact that there exists no all-agreed model which explicates how culture should be represented in English textbooks. As a prime example, some scholars hold that even the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages fails to offer a specific plan for the representation of culture in textbooks. Therefore, in this article, after revisiting a number of studies and theories regarding the representation of culture in English textbooks, we propose a blueprint for such a representation. In fact, the blueprint is synergistic in that it embraces a number of major theories and findings which only make sense if they are seen as a group .

英语教学教材中的文化：协同蓝图的出现

摘要 长期以来，文化与语言密不可分，并吸引了大量应用语言学领域的研究。然而，它在教科书，特别是英语教科书中的表现直到最近才被触及。这种迟来的尝试背后的原因在于，没有一个完全一致的模型来说明英语教科书中应该如何表达文化。作为一个典型的例子，一些学者认为，即使是欧洲共同语言参考框架也未能为教科书中的文化表现提供具体计划。因此，在本文中，在重新审视了一些关于英语教科书中文化表征的研究和理论之后，我们提出了这种表征的蓝图。实际上，
