Abstract

This paper begins with a review of studies in interpretation especially in consecutive interpretation and analyses the significance of short-term memory in consecutive interpretation. Based on researches in cognitive psychology, this thesis applies some theories in cognitive psychology to consecutive interpretation and explores short-term memory in a more comprehensive way. By referring to concrete examples and situations in consecutive interpretation, it further puts forward three short-term memory strategies in the hope that these strategies will inspire consecutive interpreting learners during their studying. Meanwhile, experienced consecutive interpreters can use these strategies to sharpen their expertise and consecutive interpreting trainers can adjust their training schedules and syllabus according to these strategies.
