ABSTRACT

This paper proposes a research method of English idiom teaching from the ecological perspective based on cultural differences, aiming to study the translation and teaching of English idioms. The method proposed in this paper is to use the particle swarm optimization algorithm based on ecology to teach English idioms. Using this algorithm to track and collect English idiom teaching information greatly improves the teaching efficiency in English idiom teaching. The results of the teaching questionnaire were analyzed by SPSS (26.0), and the P values of each item in this questionnaire were all above 0.05. This proves that the English idiom teaching model based on ecology can effectively improve students' academic performance. The experimental results can effectively show that the research on the teaching mode of English idioms based on ecology is feasible. The results of this study clearly show that the ecological technology can be well applied to the current English idiom teaching, which provides a possible development direction for the future English idiom teaching mode.
