Abstract

With the continuous development and progress of society, people from different countries communicate more and more frequently. Intercultural communication is very important in modern society. Language and culture are inseparable. Language is not only a system of symbols. The close relationship between language and culture makes the culture of English speaking countries an indispensable part of English teaching from the perspective of intercultural communication. Behind language is culture. It has become a consensus to study culture from the perspective of language education. Intercultural communication requires two abilities: the ability to use language and the ability to understand culture. This paper analyzes the current situation of English teaching and expounds the urgency and importance of cross-cultural teaching. Based on the perspective of vocational education, this paper discusses the necessity of improving cross-cultural communication and the possibility of improving cross-cultural communication, and further proposes ways to improve cross-cultural communication.
