One group will be invited to perform in class.

  17. Points to Remember • The reconstruction consists of the informational content and its package. Content and package interact to achieve the desired communication effect. • The following three criteria are generally accepted in the circle of interpreting: “accuracy, smoothness and timeliness”. • As a professional act of communication, interpreting usually involves four parties, namely, the Speaker, the Listener, the Client and the Interpreter. • An interpretation is communicatively effective if it serves the four groups’ expectations.
