As the intercultural communication competence is regarded one of the most important preconditions in effective cross-cultural communication, laying much emphasis in cultivating intercultural communication competence can better eliminate the communicative barriers and thus ensure effective cross-cultural communication. Key words: communication barriers; cross-cultural communication; comparative analysis; cultural vacancy; intercultural communication competence
