Since "Language and Literature" became a separate curriculum, the understanding of the "knowledge of language and literature" has been changing. Together with the "ability of language and literature", it was once regarded as one of the two main objectives in the teaching and learning of the curriculum. In the new curriculum standard, the item of "knowledge of language and literature" is excluded from curriculum standard. It seems to have lost its "basic" status. Does the curriculum still need the knowledge as a foundation? Does it need a system for the knowledge of language and literature? Based on the practical status of the knowledge foundation of the curriculum in china, with regard to the relations of knowledge, ability and accomplishment, this thesis attempts to comprehend the importance of the knowledge in the curriculum of language and literature. Taking the objectives and ideas of the curriculum as a principle, this thesis chooses some knowledge, which can improve students' ability and accomplishment, from linguistics, article theory and literature theory to reconstruct the knowledge system of the curriculum according to the three aspects: declarative knowledge, procedural knowledge and strategical knowledge. The purpose of this research is to offer a basis for the editing of textbooks and some reference for teachers of Language and Literature when they choose the content in teaching and arrange the procedure of teaching.
