Case Study of Unbalanced Effort Distribution in E-C Consecutive Interpreting

【摘要】 Under the guidance of Daniel Gile’s Effort Model, the paper makes an illustration of unbalanced effort distribution in the first phase of E-C consecutive interpretation through case studies, which are based on field interpretation practices. The paper explores the causes of improper effort distribution from three perspectives, namely knowledge of the language, extra-linguistic knowledge, and note-taking method. Then it renders several strategies to address improper effort distribution problems, aiming to offer some inspirations for the future field practice.更多还原
