The original material is Chinese speeches made by Chinese President Xi Jinping and Premier Li Keqiang respectively on the opening ceremony of the9th and10th China-ASEAN Business and Investment Summit on September3rd,2012and September3rd,2013. The author has finished simulated simultaneous interpreting (SI in short) and transcribed it into text. When analyzing C-E simulated simultaneous text, the author found two difficulties to be solved:Ⅰ. cultural idiom C-E simultaneous interpreting;Ⅱ. irregular parallel expression C-E simultaneous interpreting.Under the guidance of interpretive theory, by example analyzing, the author put forward two countermeasures for cultural idiom C-E SI:one is interpretative replacing, the other is explaining connotation. There are also two countermeasures for irregular parallel expression C-E SI:one is interpretative reducing, the other is parallelly listing the words of the same characteristic.The above SI countermeasures provided the author with solutions to cultural idiom and parallel expression interpreting. They can help interpreters not only achieve the goal of communication but also save time. The above countermeasures also provided other interpreters with certain reference in C-E simultaneous interpreting of similar topic speeches made by Xi Jinping and Li Keqiang.
