Enlightened by the interactive mode of communication, this paper discusses two settings of interpreting, namely one-way speech interpreting and two-way dialogue interpreting, in order to enhance the integrality of the evaluation framework. Relevant research findings of an empirical study validated the importance of situationality and communicative context.
