Abstract: Language is not a simple symbol,but also the vehicle of culture.Language and culture complement each other.In ideological field,the words of Chinese and English which seem to be equivalent may have completely different implications,which reflects the conflicts of different cultural background,hides the hegemony of linguistic imperialism.Therefore,we could no longer be confined to internal research of language itself,but should emphasize on the power discourse in context,and pay more attention to the cultivation of the students' sensitiveness,toleration and flexibility when facing cultural differences.Nowadays,cultural conflicts are quite fierce,therefore,it will be a long process to protect our own culture from being distorted by western colonialism and misinterpreted.
