ABSTRACT

 This paper is concerned with the training methods of short-term memory in consecutive interpreting. According to Effort Model from Daniel Gile, the short-term memory is an essential part in the process of interpreting. So, a good short-term memory is able to help interpreter improve the quality of interpreting.
 Except for the introduction in Chapter 1, in Chapter 2, there is above all an introduction about interpretation，and this can make us have a clear understanding about the short-term memory. The author holds that interpreting is a STM-centered activity own to its limitation to the time. In Chapter 3, the author describes Daniel Gile’s Effort Model in details even the four steps in it. In Chapter 4, how three types of memory systems work and what functions they have and illustration is focused on the concrete contacts between the short-term memory and interpreting, which is the main topic of the paper. In Chapter 5, based on all above, four training methods of short-term memory are elaborated such as visualizing, reasoning, chunking and outlining. Finally, some cases would be quoted to introduce the application of training methods.
 The author hopes that these training methods from this paper could be useful for interpreters.
Key words: consecutive interpreting  short-term memory  training methods

交替传译中短时记忆的训练方法
摘  要
 
 本文的焦点集中在口译中短时记忆的训练方法。根据Daniel Gile的精力分配模式，短时记忆在整个口译过程中起着举足轻重的作用。因此，强的短时记忆能力可以帮助译者提高口译的质量。
 本文共分为五部分。除第一章介绍部分，在第二章，口译的介绍，帮助我们对短时记忆有个清晰的了解。笔者认为，由于口译工作时间上的严格限制，整个的口译工作是围绕着短时记忆展开的。在第三章中，笔者详细描述了Daniel Gile 的Effort Model, 并对模式中的四个步骤详细展开介绍。第四章介绍了三个记忆系统（瞬时记忆、短时记忆、长时记忆）在人脑中的运作方式，然后对其在口译中的功能特征进行归纳，并把范围圈定到短时记忆与口译工作的具体联系上，即本文的重点所在。第五章，基于以上阐述，作者对短时记忆的训练方法进行了详尽的说明，包括视觉化、逻辑化、模块化以及轮廓化。在第六章，笔者引用了一些具体的案例来对以上涉及到的训练方法进行说明。
 作者希望，本文提供的短时记忆的训练方法能够对译员的口译提供一定的帮助。
