Abstract
With the development of the Internet information and the acceleration of communication between domestic and international markets, the translation market is going through an unprecedented developing period. At the same time, CAT is also a great impetus on the development of translation industry. Translation is a cross-lingual and cross-cultural activity proceeded from thinking and semantic levels. Though Machine Translation (MT) is able to realize the conversion between words, it does not have complicated mental cognitive ability to recognize texts.
Keywords：Computer Aided Translation (CAT) ; Machine Translation (MT) ; translators
With the development of the Internet information technology, CAT successfully step into the translation market, and compete with the human translation. However, is CAT really better than human translation? In fact, the emergence of each new tool has its necessity of existence, but t the same time it still has some limitations. In this paper, firstly I will introduce the basic concepts of CAT; secondly I will give a comparison on CAT and human translation to show the advantages and limitations of CAT; in the final, I will analysis the cause and enlightenment of those limitations.
1. The basic concepts of CAT

We must know that its most notable feature is machine translation (MT). Only automatic machine translation has the greatest speed but unsatisfactory quality. In such cases, the CAT technology has been gradually valued, and it makes up for the deficiency of the machine translation. CAT is main
