Abstract: Cultural comparison method in junior middle school English teaching is a very important teaching method, which can help students better understand and grasp the differences between different cultures. This paper explores the use of cultural comparison in English teaching at junior middle school level, focusing on the analysis of lexical comparison, address comparison, values comparison, greeting comparison and so on. It also highlights the importance of fostering intercultural communicative competence in the classroom. The research shows that through the application of cultural contrast, students can have a deeper understanding of the differences between different cultures, so as to enhance intercultural communicative competence and improve English language ability and cultural accomplishment. Indeed, in junior middle school English teaching, it is crucial to actively incorporate cultural comparison in order to enhance students’ development of intercultural communicative competence. By understanding and appreciating different cultures, students can effectively communicate with people from diverse backgrounds and broaden their perspectives. Cultural comparison not only promotes language learning but also cultivates students’ intercultural sensitivity and global awareness, preparing them for a more interconnected world.
