r work. After systematical review on their work, wefound that most of the previous studies on nominalizations in EST just discuss thefunctions of nominalizations and there are only a few scientific discourses are beingexplored. They are lack of the empirical support.As for the application of nominalization in EST discourse to teaching, there islittle discussion. We hold that the analysis of nominalization phenomenon in ESTdiscourses may help students understand the role of nominalization in a better way.And the further study on nominalization and the understanding of its cause andstructure could provide certain theoretical basis for English-Chinese translation. InEnglish teaching, if teachers could explain nominalization appropriately it would bedefinitely helpful to students to deal with the interference of negative transfer causedby mother tongue and understand the reading material correctly. In addition, theanalysis of nominalization could also help students to cultivate their habit of thinkingin English, thus helping them to reduce disturbance of mother tongue when doing theoutput and produce standard English expression, and this would be beneficial topromote the quality of teaching.In the light of this, we can say that, the application of nominalization of ESTdiscourse in college English teaching is feasible to some extant. If students have thechance to learn something about nominalization, they could understand EST discoursebetter, thus leading to the improvement of the effectiveness of EST discourseteaching.

2.1.1.1 Grammar-Translation Method
No matter in the past or nowadays, most of nations are bilingualism ormultilingualism. For this perspective, it is fair to say that foreign language teachingand learning has always been an important practical concern throughout history.Though English is the most popular foreign language in the world, five hundredsyears ago it was Latin that enjoyed such popularity, for Latin dominated the field ofeducation, commerce, religion and government in the western countries at that time.In the 16 century, however, French, Italian, and English gained in importance as aresult of political changes in Europe, and Latin gradually became displaced as alanguage of spoken and written communication.
