With the rapid development of the society, the communication between British and Chinese has become more and more frequent.

And this paper aims to analyze the reasons why pragmatic failure happens in the process of Chinese-English intercultural nonverbal communication, and it also gives some measures on how to avoid pragmatic failure in Chinese- English intercultural nonverbal communication, in the hope that people can have a successful intercultural nonverbal communication between English and Chinese.
