Abstract

Against the backdrop of the integration of sports and education rising to a national strategy, the cultivation goal for sports-talented students is shifting from a singular focus on competitive ability to that of 'sports+culture' compound talents. English cultural literacy, as a key factor for their participation in international sports affairs, sustainable career development, and enhancement of national sports soft power, urgently requires systematic innovation in its cultivation model. Based on the theoretical perspective of the integration of sports and education, this paper first elaborates on the contemporary value of innovating the cultivation model from five dimensions: serving the strategy of building a leading sports nation, promoting sustainable career development, resolving the 'academic-training conflict, ' enhancing cross-cultural adaptability, and stimulating intrinsic learning motivation. Second, it analyzes the current practical dilemmas from five aspects: disconnected curriculum content, monotonous teaching methods, biased evaluation systems, insufficient teacher backgrounds, and conflicts between academic study and training schedules. Third, it proposes five corresponding governance pathways: developing modular English courses in sports contexts, implementing an integrated 'learning-training-competition' teaching method, constructing a 'process+performance' diversified evaluation system, forming interdisciplinary collaborative teaching teams, and establishing a flexible learning support system.
