浅谈影响跨文化交际的因素

近年来,由于我国执行改革开放政策,在政治、经济、文化、教育等方面与世界各国的交往和联系大为增加,每年来华人数以百万计,而去国外工作、学习、出席国际会议、谈判贸易、访问的人数也与日俱增。我们与不同文化背景的人们的接触不仅涉及语言,同时也与文化密切相关。越来越多的人们认识到学习一门外语只学习它的语音、语法、词汇、用法是远远不够的,实际上,语言本身就是文化的一部分,没有任何一种自然语言不反映某种文化。本文主要阐述了在这种深刻背景下所涉及到的跨文化交际的重要意义,文化与交际的定义和特征,影响跨文化交际的各种因素,以及如何提高人们的跨文化意识。作者希望谨以此文使外语教学工作者注意到在外语教学中文化因素的重要性,以及进一步提高高层次的自学者运用英语的自觉性。
