Abstract
There are great differences between Chinese culture and British and American culture, which are reflected in the linguistic forms, internal systems and pragmatic conditions of the two languages. Therefore, on the basis of introducing the understanding of intercultural communication and intercultural communicative competence, the author explores the necessity of cultivating students' intercultural communicative competence in College English teaching. Studies have shown that in social interaction, language appropriateness is often more important than grammatical correctness. At present, language teaching has an absolute advantage in college English teaching, and cultural teaching is marginalized.
