ABSTRACT

The research will be based on the three-dimensional model of genre analysis proposed by Bhatia (2004) [2] and the three-dimensional model for analysing tourism genre texts constructed by Liao (2014, 2018) [5, 10]. It will conduct an interpersonal function analysis of existing Chinese-English translation texts at the selected research site from three dimensions: textual space, socio-cognitive space, and social space. The study aims to analyse and enhance the translation of tourist texts at Bao Gong Park. Additionally, it will engage with nearby Chinese cultural translation materials, practicing cultural outreach. Following the Translation Cross-Cultural Competence Scale (Yarosh, 2015) [14], the research will organize and standardize issues related to cultural awareness and social space that may arise during the translation analysis process. This study provides feasible solutions for cultivating cross-cultural competence among contemporary college students.
