ABSTRACT

The construction of Hainan Free Trade Port has raised diversified and professional demands for English talents, while there exists a structural gap between the supply of college English teaching and industrial needs. Following the logic of "demand analysis-adaptation examination-mechanism construction", this study first deconstructs the English competence requirements in language service scenarios of the Free Trade Port and establishes a "three-dimensional quality model" covering linguistic foundation, professional ability, and comprehensive literacy. It then systematically investigates the current situation of college English teaching in Hainan's universities, diagnoses the mismatch between teaching supply and the demands of the Free Trade Port, and analyzes the institutional, resource, and capacity factors restricting effective connection. Finally, based on system theory and synergy theory, this study constructs a four-stage linkage theoretical framework: "demand identification-teaching response-talent output-feedback optimization", designs implementation paths from four core elements: curriculum system, practice platform, teaching staff, and evaluation mode, and proposes a supporting system for mechanism operation from the perspectives of policy support, organizational guarantee, and resource allocation. This research aims to provide theoretical basis and practical guidance for college English teaching reform in Hainan's universities and serve the overall goal of talent support for the construction of the Free Trade Port.
