我们可否考虑这样来描述语境.PPT

Context Theory and Teaching Practice By Shen Panyang Nov.16, 2016 Part One: Introduction 语境理论对于商务英语教学具有重要指导意义，很多教学方法如：情景法、交际法、浸入法，都可以从中找到理论高度上的根据和诠释，同时也为这门学科的发展奠定了坚实基础。这里我们从语境的意义、分类、顺应和创造这四个角度考察商务英语，可以取得秉烛观洞的探微效果，更好地发挥理论对于实践的指导作用。 Example 1: Suppose you are bargaining with someone about a price, what will you say and how will you express yourself ?
