Abstract

In this paper, we conduct research on the English cross-cultural communication skills from the perspectives of differences in Chinese and western thinking. According to the pragmatic about the context and the speech act theory, language communication in the discourse meaning varies with the context. So in cross-cultural communication activity, we must according to specific communicative context, adjust the understanding of discourse, adjust their own words to make it right, decent, can we properly adjust communication mutual relations and the behavior of the coordination between the communicator, eventually successful communication. We believe that before explore ways for the cultivation of the intercultural communication ability, the inevitable problem that nots allow to ignore is the expurgation of intercultural communication ability. Therefore, our research integrates the other perspectives to help propose the novel methodology on the issues that is meaningful.
