%X Due to the inseparable relationship between language and culture, culture learning is inevitably involved in EFL (English as a Foreign Language) teaching. Cultural knowledge directly affects the appropriateness of communication in English. Accordingly it is essential to cultivate students¡¯ cross-cultural awareness, thereby improving their communicative abilities to speak and write in English. Through analyzing the present situation of cross-cultural awareness in primary English class in Nanchong, China, as well as the necessity of fostering students¡¯ cross-cultural awareness in primary school English teaching, this paper explores ways of how to permeate the culture teaching and cultivate students¡¯ cross-cultural awareness, aiming at enhancing their communicative abilities to speak and write.
