随着随着我国对外交往活动的日益频繁和世界经济一体化,跨文化交际能力的重要性已日益显现。这一交际能力对中国英语教学界产生越来越重要的影响,并逐步取代传统意义上的英语交际能力。本文首先综述了国内外学者对跨文化交际能力的内涵;然后构建了跨文化交际能力的几种模式;最后提出了英语教学培养跨文化交际能力的途径。 With the increasing frequency of China’s foreign exchange activities and the integration of the world economy, the importance of intercultural communication skills has become increasingly apparent. This communicative competence has an increasingly important influence on the Chinese teaching of English and gradually replaces the communicative competence in the traditional sense of English. This article first reviews the connotation of cross-cultural communicative competence by domestic and foreign scholars; then constructs several modes of intercultural communicative competence; and finally puts forward the approaches to cultivate intercultural communicative competence in English teaching.
