Abstract

As English becomes more like a communication tool not only between native speakers and non-native speakers but also among non-native speakers, the attitudes towards English Teaching and learning should also be adjusted. Kachru’s introduction of World Englishes shed some lights on the perspective on China’s English education. Sound BBC and VOA accent shouldn’t be the prominent standard to judge the competence of English. Chinese people should pay attention to the different varieties of English or English of different accents on the basis of the mastery of Received Pronunciation (RP), then, they will be sure to obtain better competences to have effective communication with the outside world.
