Abstract The understanding of culture cannot be ignored during the use of language, due to the close relationship between language and culture. In English teaching, we should cultivate cross-cultural communicative awareness in order to avoid unnecessary embarrassment in communication events, which may affects the interpersonal intercourse. Therefore, we should actively show our response in language teaching, guide students to cultivate students' intercultural communicative awareness, and lead in the western culture systematically and purposefully, as far as possible to help students understand the cultural background knowledge of western countries, and eventually improve students' ability of using a language. It is necessary to cultivate cross-cultural awareness, which is the problem that must be broken through in English teaching. 58365
