摘要:: 海事专业语言能力培养方案中通用英语（EGP）和专门用途英语（ESP）两大课程群缺乏衔接模块，未能形成渐进、统一的课程体系。依据泰勒课程设计原理，以目标形成、内容选择、课程组织、课程评价为设计框架，将海事文化英语作为衔接课程，导入EGP+ESP课程体系，从语言能力培养和海事人才综合能力构建两方面融通两个课程模块。衔接课程综合了EGP的人文特性和ESP的工具属性，方案的设计和实施兼顾学习者的学习需要和教师提升专业素养的诉求，是EGP教学走向专业化的自救式探索。

Abstract:: There is a huge gap between EGP and ESP in the curriculum of maritime colleges in China.Since English is considered to exhibit a continuum from general to specific,a smooth transition is crucial.This research involves the application of Tyler rationale to formulate objectives,select and organize learning experiences,and to determine the effectiveness of the content and method of a merged program for EGP and ESP.The purpose of this paper is to report on the use of Maritime English Readings as a means to bridge the gap between EGP and ESP at Jimei University,and to give pedagogical and curricular suggestions for the teaching and learning of English at maritime -related colleges in China and elsewhere.
