In order to achieve the goal of fostering morality cultivation, college English must be reformed to meet the new requirements of morality education in foreign language courses. This paper takes Unit 4 in Book 2 of New Target College English: An Integrated course as an example to demonstrate the requirements of adapting textbook content to serving morality education. Its basic principles and methods are as follows :1) to refine the morality themes and determine the teaching objectives; 2) use content-based teaching method to achieve theme-based teaching activities and naturally integrate language ability with morality goals; 3) arrange teaching content around morality themes, and connect online and offline learning activities to introduce and consolidate morality cultivation teaching.
