在口译过程中,译员不得不面对大量的信息流。他们迫切需要摆脱语言的束缚,克服记忆力容量有限,外来干扰造成注意力分散等口译中常常出现的困扰。本书从认知语言学的角度,没有将口译过程看成纯粹的语言活动,而是信息处理过程。在此基础上,构建了认知信息处理能力工作模式,具有实用性和可操作性,对于口译工作者和口译教学者都具有一定的借鉴作用。

International diplomacy and trade have always depended on thework of linguistic and cultural mediation provided by bilingual andmultilingual translators and interpreters. As the worlds largest tradingnation, Chinas economic growth is closely related to the ability of itsbusinesses to reach clients and consumers across linguistic divides. Overthe past decades, this growth has meant a strong increase in the demandfor translation and interpreting services. Understanding the need for andthe importance of highly qualified professionals, the Chinese governmentintroduced the Master in Translation and Interpreting MTI scheme in2007. Ten years later, Chinese universities have become a major supplierof graduates in translation and interpreting. At the same time, we haveseen a significant increase in research on translation and interpretingtopics and a growing range of publications addressing both professionaland didactic challenges. The latter is especially important for the field ofinterpreting, a traditionally under-researched area in China and manyother countries.Interpreting, i.e., the either simultaneous or delayed oral reproductionin one language of a text or text segment spoken in another languageiv A Conceptual Mapping Model for Cognitive Processing CapacityManagement in Consecutive Interpretinghas long fascinated external observers. Indeed, the linguistic andextralinguistic skills needed to carry out a successful interpretingperformance are as manifold as they are demanding. Yet talent alone doesnot guarantee success, and excellent levels of competence in two or morelanguages are only the starting point in the career of interpreters. Muchmore important is in-depth training in the many challenging aspectsof interpreting and the development of important general abilities suchas information research, public speaking, split attention and specificstrategies to deal with interpreting problems. One of the main challengesof interpreting, both in its simultaneous and consecutive modes, is theimmense cognitive effort that it excerpts on the practitioners. As leadinginterpreting researcher Daniel Gile has shown, once interpreters havereached the limits of their information processing capacities, i.e., whenthey experience a cognitive overload, even small problems can lead tointerpreting mistakes.Managing the cognitive demands of their profession and finding waysto avoid a cognitive overload is therefore of utmost importance and mustplay a significant role in the development of interpreting competence. It isin this context that Ying Jins book gains particular importance. The book,based on extensive research in both China and New Zealand, providesnot only a comprehensive discussion of interpreting strategy and qualitycriteria but proposes an innovative method to address the challengeof cognitive load. Here, she develops the idea of conceptual maps andapplies them as powerful tools that aid interpreters in structuring theprocessing of information during the interpreting process. The techniquePrefaceof conceptual mapping thus provides a very useful strategy to reduce theinterpreters cognitive effort. Ying Jins book goes even further, in that itshows how interpreter trainees can integrate conceptual mapping intotheir own teaching and how interpreting students can apply the techniqueto their own, autonomous learning.The fact that the book does cover both interpreting practice andthe teaching of future interpreters is also a consequence of the authorsmultifaceted background. She has studied in leading universities inChina and New Zealand, has taught and worked as an interpreter in bothcountries, and plays a leading role in the development of interpretingprograms as Vice Dean in charge of the Master in Translation andInterpreting MTI at Hainan University. All these experiences inform theexcellent research and ideas expressed in this book, the reading of whichwill be immensely beneficial to researchers, teachers and students ofinterpreting.Frank AustermuehlProfessor of Modern Languages and Chair of Translation StudiesAston University, Birmingham, UK
