Translation and Interpreting in the Global Age
【正确答案】
New Trends of Translation Industry in the Global Age

With the rapid development of the domestic economy, exchanges between China and other economies become more and more frequent every day. Various international conferences are being held in many Chinese provinces and cities, thus the translation market in China begins to hot up. In Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and other big cities, the demand gap of translation industry known as "golden rice bowl", is becoming larger in the talent market. It has become a sun rising industry in China. Although the industry itself still has many problems, it demonstrates many new trends.
The whole world is globalizing, so is the translation industry. The business is becoming international and personalized at the same time. More and more translation companies and interpreting service firms will focus on the global translation market. And according to one or several specific target markets, the companies are going to design appropriate personalized products. For example, different target countries will receive different translating and interpreting services. More translators and interpreters will alter their way of using words, idioms and phrases according to different cultural backgrounds. Thus the industry will be more diverse stratified.
Furthermore, those companies and firms will derive more and more related services for their clients, such as providing tourist guiding service and publishing the translated books. In this way translation service can obtain greater profit margins not only by providing high quality translation services, but also by providing related services to customers. The company will be more integral and complex. That is the blueprint of many translation companies and interpreting service firms.
What's more, the translation will be combined with high-technology in the future. Cutting-edged translation tools will be invented in the future and the phonetic devices helping filter the accents will be used in the interpreting process, adding the success of understanding. The process of translating will become much easier.
With the promising future of translation and interpretation, more and more students make up their mind to be a member of this excellent group, and I am one of them. I believe the industry will develop towards the brightest angle.
