Abstract
With the development of economic globalization, the internationalization of business activities has accelerated rapidly. The participants of international business activities should possess adequate cross-cultural communicative competence. It follows that cultivating cross-cultural communicative competence is essential for Business English teaching. Taking the college Business English class as a case study, this study explores the current situation of Business English class through class observation and after-class interview. The findings show that the teacher starts with the basic concept, organizing group discussion and other teaching methods to cultivate students’ cross-culture communicative competence in the business English class. After-class interview shows that some students have their own understanding of Business English. Meanwhile, they regard class instruction as beneficial for their intercultural communicative competence yet there is still room for improvement. Though it is a case study extending only a limited period of time, it is hoped that this study can shed some light on cross-cultural communication and a further study can be conducted on this topic.
