"隨著國際貿易頻繁，各行業以英文交流的場合大增，口譯人才益顯重要。本書介紹如何養成「逐步口譯」的能力，提供根本技巧及進階程度的訓練方針，適合口譯基本教材及有心自修的讀者。
全書分七個章節，包含中英翻譯人力需求現況、逐步口譯與同步口譯的差異、逐步口譯的記憶訓練、筆記技巧、名稱及數字的轉換、運用電腦輔助等等，每個章節輔以豐富的範例與練習，實踐所學的技巧，了解自身需要補強之處，透過反覆練習，精進口譯能力。

This book provides trainers with essential Consecutive Interpreting (CI) techniques, and training guidelines which they can adapt to suit their own training situations. In addition, students and self-learners can enhance their interpreting skills by following the instructions and practices provided in the book. The training examples and exercises are related to the cultural and economic background of Macao and Hong Kong, and extend to cover scenic spots in China and overseas. Through the guided instructions, students and self-learners would not only acquire the skills for consecutive interpreting, but also broaden their knowledge about the socio-economical activities of their local societies and beyond."
