【摘要】：谚语是习语和民间文学的一部分。一般说来,谚语的语言具有简洁、凝练、生动形象、韵律优美和谐等特征。谚语是语言和文化的结晶,是人们生活、斗争、经验的总结和对世界的认知,其充满了智慧,对人生具有启发和教育作用。此外,谚语还具有民族性,是一个民族特殊文化的镜子。谚语在语言和文化中具有重要作用,一直以来备受国内外学者的关注。他们对谚语的研究主要包括在以下几个方面：谚语的民族特点、谚语的修辞和语言特点、谚语的分类、谚语的作用、谚语的翻译、以及英汉谚语的对比研究等。由于认知语言学的出现,很多学者从认知语言学的角度对谚语进行了研究。然而,从语用学角度对谚语研究的学者相对较少。基于上述原因,本文主要结合顺应论和模因论对英语谚语能够广泛传播和具有长存性的原因进行了研究。本文首先介绍了国内外对英语谚语的研究现状和谚语的一些基本概况,其次对所运用的理论框架进行了详细的阐释,接着分析英语谚语模因在复制和传播中的选择标准,最后从顺应论的角度阐述了英语谚语模因能够广泛传播和长存的原因,分别是对认知,情感和文化的顺应。通过以上研究,本文得出的结论是：英语谚语本身就是一种语言模因,它包含了模因的特征。语言模因在产生和发展过程就像基因一样,其过程是一个优胜劣汰,适者生存的过程。只有那些顺应了人们交际需要的模因才能获得顽强生命力,在人们交际中世代流传。
