Fostering student’s creative thinking is an important project related to the country’s developing strategies on education.

On the basis of fully understanding the theory of critical thinking, theoretical teaching concept of critical thinking can be penetrated into the curriculum designing, teaching idea, teachers’ literacy, teaching evaluation and training target, so as to nurture students to become critical and innovative talents. Thus, it can inject new elements and motivation for the sustainable development of translation studies. Based on Bloom’s cognitive hierarchy theory, this paper combines the cultivation of critical thinking skills and translation teaching, which can not only enrich the literature on critical thinking, but also offer a guide for similar studies and translation teaching methods.
