摘要
中国由"本土型国家"向"国际型国家"的转变,逐渐提出了许多新的外语需求。在满足国家需求的过程中,也必然促进外语事业进入新的发展期。值此之时,必须制定科学的外语发展规划。制定外语规划,首先要考虑国家开发和信息化两大因素,要了解外语国情,并应关注如下几个方面的问题:非通用语种,外文的译入和中文的译出,公共服务领域的外语应用,外侨社区的外语服务,军事、边防、国家安全等特殊领域的外语需求,公民外语素养等。未来外语事业的发展,需要国家建立一个统管或是协调外语事业的机构,需要积极研究外语在中国的法律地位。
New demands for foreign languages are emerging as China is evolving from a "localized nation" to an "internationalized nation", which calls for and promises new opportunities for foreign language planning in China. Two crucial factors, national development and information management, should be considered in planning our foreign language policies. In addition, the actual use of foreign languages in the country, the less-commonly-used foreign languages, the t-ranslation from other languages into Chinese and from Chinese into other languages, the use of foreign languages in public spheres and in foreign communities inside China, the demands for foreign languages in the military, border defenses, nation'a] security and other vital areas, and the teaching of foreign languages to the general public, should all be taken into account in developing our national foreign language policies. A national institution is needed to manage and coordinate the use and teaching of foreign languages in China and research on the legal status of foreign languages in China becomes a top priority.
