Like other studies, this study still has some limitations, which the future studies should be considered. To begin with, because of the time limitation, all the cases above are from books and lack of practice. All kinds of culture can be worked out in certain environment. It’s impractical to mix all culture together. Each one not only needs to stick to one’s own culture, but also respect other people’s culture and customs. When having intercultural communication, people always intends to talk in their own mode of thinking which makes conversation embarrassing and difficult to continue. It’s quite frequent that one’s speech is practicable in party A, but totally nonsense in party B, so it’s suggested that information be collected before having intercultural conversation. Then workable plan or conversation can be made.
