In the new century, with the gradual deepening of China's opening to the outside world, people and things in western society have increasingly entered people's lives. Due to many reasons such as nationality, history, geography and society, differences between languages, conflicts and misreading of heterogeneous cultures and collision of national cultural psychology are most fully and obviously displayed in English cross-cultural communication. In a deep sense, the cultivation of intercultural communicative competence is actually reshaping personality. We must fully understand that the process of English communication should also be a process of cultural exchange, and we need to take appropriate measures to integrate social and cultural knowledge into the training of various skills. From the perspective of constructivism, this paper analyzes the formation of intercultural communicative competence. With the increasing frequency of cultural exchanges, people must have good personality characteristics in order to eliminate obstacles in cultural exchanges and achieve the purpose of cross-cultural communication.
