An Analysis Of E-C SI And Its Strategies Use Based On Schema Theory

The simultaneous interpreting as an interpreting activity is widely used in major international conferences and public speeches on occasions of international political,economic and cultural exchanges.The huge market of simultaneous inter:preting requests demanding requirements for interpreters to understand the source speakers and output the target language instantly under high-strung circumstances.Therefore,simultaneous interpreters should not only have good mental quality and professional knowledge,but also need to master and use different translation strategies so as to interpret simultaneously and successfully.This paper takes the interpretation of the public speech by Howard Schultz,the founder of Starbucks and the chairman of Starbucks'board of directors,in Tsinghua University in 2017 as the analysis text to see how to appropriately apply translation strategies in the process of English-Chinese simultaneous interpreting and to find out problems and solutions guided by the language schema,content schema and structural schema respectively based on the schema theory.And this paper is also supposed to help guide interpreters and learners to output more logical and accurate versions of the simultaneous interpreting.Finally this paper comes to the conclusion that the schema theory can explain and provide strong theoretical support for English-Chinese simultaneous interpreting.If related schemata were activated successfully,they would help interpreters analyze and understand the source language and sometimes they would even help them make nonverbal prediction and apply app,.ropriate translation strategies so as to Ooutput high-quality and relatively accurate versions.
