摘要

为了更好的适应全球化发展和跨文化交流，越来越多的人选择学习第二语言。 英语作为被世界各国广泛使用的语言已经成为许多人二语学习的选择。在中国，英语已经成为学生们的必修科目，但是这种英语学习基本上是以应试为主要目的，很少涉及文化知识的渗透。文化具有多样性且文化多样性是不可消除的，它使世界文化多姿多彩，但同时也给各国之间的交流带来了困难，使得跨文化交流变得更加困难。

关键词：全球化 二语学习 跨文化交流

Abstract

In order to adapt to the development of globalization and cross-cultural communication better, more and more people choose to learn a second language. As the most widely used language in the world, English has been the best choice for second language learning. In China, English has become the students' compulsory subject, while English learning is basically exam-oriented, and cultural knowledge is rarely touched. Culture is diverse and cultural diversity can not be eliminated. Cultural diversity makes the world colorful but simultaneously it brings problems to the communication between countries and makes cross-culture communication become more difficult.

Key words: Globalization; Second Language Learning; Cross-culture Communication
