Abstract
With the globalization of the world economy, the world is becoming “global village”. Policy, economy and cultures are closely connected with one another.

This paper is mainly discussed into three aspects. Firstly, it analyzes the differences between Chinese and American cultures based on some vivid examples during business activities. Secondly, the writer studies how Sino-American cultural differences affect Business English translation. Lastly, the third part is to give some special characteristics of Business English translation and put forward some requirements for Business English translators. It is hoped that the study will provide some useful resources for the translators when doing business translations.
