Abstract

The significance of Swain's Output Hypothesis lies in the fact that the output of language is also an important cognitive tool, which helps the language learners to realize the problems during their language acquisition process and thus they are facilitated to use the target language more accurately. The low translation capacity is the most alarming problem for college English teaching and learning, which triggers the new translation testing models of CET4. This paper, aiming at improve the language teaching and learning in college English translation course, first introduces the basic claims and modeling strategies, and then tries to form at a better set-up for the translation course and its classroom activities driven by the Output Hypothesis.
