Abstract

Misreading has always been a common phenomenon in the reading process.Traditional modes of thoughts deny misreading,regarding it as a misinterpretation of the original ideas.Modern trends affirm misreading,regarding it as an opportunity to stimulate creativity.The language reading course advocates approaching misreading dialectically,which means,on the one hand,trying to avoid misreading,stick to the original ideas of the text and uphold the historical integrity;and on the other hand,approving rational misreading so as to expand the extended meaning of a text and preserve the creativity of pluralistic interpretation.Both the original meaning and the extended meaning should have their due place respectively in the reading course.
