Abstract: The study arranged communication task and individual task, created three communicative contexts, and compared the language accuracy of both sides in different contexts. The results showed that:(1)In the three contexts, language accuracy was the highest in only language communication. Object visibility in the context of communication hampered the rate of language accuracy, and expression visibility reduced the level of language accuracy. The efficiency and effect of language accuracy in high similarity subjects were higher than those in low similarity subjects. (2)Under the condition of language, the level of language accuracy was the highest in the communication task; in the context of object visibility, the accuracy level was the lowest in the individual task. Compared to the communication task, the high similarity subject in the individual task was more accurate. The results suggested that:language cognition did not fully represent communication cognition, object visibility hindered language cognition and communication cognitive level, and expression visibility and language together improved the cognitive level of communication.
