Abstract

Embodied-Cognitive Linguistics (ECL for short) is put forward by Professor Yin Wang after over 20 years’ in-depth thoughts and studies of cognitive linguistics. Putting more emphasis on materialism and humanism, ECL is more comprehensive, multilevel and practical. Its kernel principle is “reality-Cognition-Language”. This paper tries to explore college reading teaching based on the principle and analyse teaching practice by using the theory.
