Abstract
A weak memory can cause grave mistakes during an interpretation which may affect interpreters’ self-esteem and leave strong psychological implications to them. This paper mainly focuses on discussing what problems memory would cause and the reason why they show during an interpreting, as well as methods to leave this predicament. This essay is divided into two main parts: analysis and understanding of literatures for reasons of memory issues with author’s own opinions in the end, and a conclusion.
