English reading instruction plays a vital role in English language teaching, particularly in the high school stage where reading materials often encompass diverse cultural backgrounds. The revised 2017 edition of the “The New English Curriculum Standards” further emphasizes the importance of cross-cultural communication skills in English teaching. This study seeks to analyze the present state of high school students’ cross-cultural awareness and communication abilities, while also exploring the significance of fostering cross-cultural awareness through reading, as well as the challenges faced in this process. The study also provides suggestions to enhance students’ cross-cultural awareness and communication abilities.
