Abstract
Persuasive speech is a common speech-type in English to Chinese consecutive interpreting. Unlike informative speeches, the persuasive speech serves to try to convert the audience to the speaker's point of view, instead of informing the audience of a fact that they don't know or don't know much about. Persuasive speech, therefore, has a higher tone, and the speaker's emotions are more impassioned, making it more interactive with the audience. The thesis takes the interpretation of Emma Watson's "HeForShe" speech on gender equality delivered at the United Nations as an example, and analyzes the techniques and strategies used in the interpreting, taking into account the experience in conference interpreting simulation.
