上集說到,哈利差不多買完了清單上的所有物品——只差一根魔杖了。請結(jié)合今天有聲讀物的mp3及下方的原文和翻譯,開始今天的聽力練習(xí)吧!
原文及翻譯
Outside the Apothecary, Hagrid checked Harry's list again. "Just yer wand left - A yeah, an' I still haven't got yeh a birthday present." Harry felt himself go red. "You don't have to—" "I know I don't have to. Tell yeh what, I'll get yer animal. Not a toad, toads went outta fashion years ago, yeh'd be laughed at - an' I don' like cats, they make me sneeze. I'll get yer an owl. All the kids want owls, they're dead useful, carry yer mail an' everythin'."
在藥劑師店外,海格又檢查了哈利的清單?!爸皇O履愕哪д攘?。我還沒有給你買生日禮物?!惫X得自己臉紅了?!澳悴槐亍薄拔抑牢也槐?。告訴你,我會給你買只動物。不是蟾蜍,蟾蜍幾年前就過時(shí)了,你會被嘲笑;我不喜歡貓,它們會讓我打噴嚏。我給你買一只貓頭鷹。所有的孩子都想要貓頭鷹,它們非常有用,可以幫你送郵件和所有東西?!?/p>
Twenty minutes later, they left Eeylops Owl Emporium, which had been dark and full of rustling and flickering, jewel-bright eyes. Harry now carried a large cage that held a beautiful snowy owl, fast asleep with her head under her wing. He couldn't stop stammering his thanks, sounding just like Professor Quirrell. "Don' mention it," said Hagrid gruffly. "Don' expect you've had a lotta presents from them Dursleys."
二十分鐘后,他們離開了埃伊洛普斯貓頭鷹商場,那里很暗,到處都是沙沙作響、閃爍著寶石般明亮的眼睛。哈利現(xiàn)在拿著一個(gè)大籠子,里面關(guān)著一只美麗的雪鸮,它正把頭埋在翅膀下熟睡。他結(jié)結(jié)巴巴地說著感謝,聽起來就像奇洛教授一樣。 “不用謝,”海格粗聲粗氣地說?!皠e指望德思禮家給你送了很多禮物噢?!?/p>
Just Ollivanders left now - only place fer wands, Ollivanders, and yeh gotta have the best wand." A magic wand... this was what Harry had been really looking forward to. The last shop was narrow and shabby. Peeling gold letters over the door read Ollivanders: Makers of Fine Wands since 382 B.C. A single wand lay on a faded purple cushion in the dusty window. A tinkling bell rang somewhere in the depths of the shop as they stepped inside.
現(xiàn)在只剩下去奧利凡德魔杖店買魔杖了。在奧利凡德,你可以得到最好的魔杖?!币桓д取@是哈利真正期待的。 最后一家商店狹窄而破舊,門上剝落的金字寫著奧利凡德:自公元前 382 年以來一直制造精美魔杖,一根魔杖放在布滿灰塵的窗戶上褪色的紫色墊子上。他們走進(jìn)商店時(shí),商店深處的某個(gè)地方響起了叮當(dāng)響的鈴鐺。
It was a tiny place, empty except for a single, spindly chair that Hagrid sat on to wait. Harry felt strangely as though he had entered a very strict library; he swallowed a lot of new questions that had just occurred to him and looked instead at the thousands of narrow boxes piled neatly right up to the ceiling. For some reason, the back of his neck prickled. The very dust and silence in here seemed to tingle with some secret magic.
這是一個(gè)很小的地方,除了海格坐在等待的一把細(xì)長的椅子外,里面空無一人。哈利奇怪地覺得自己好像進(jìn)入了一個(gè)非常嚴(yán)格的圖書館;他把剛剛冒出來的許多新問題咽了回去,轉(zhuǎn)而看著整齊地堆放在天花板上的數(shù)千個(gè)狹窄的盒子。不知為何,他的后頸一陣刺痛。這里的灰塵和寂靜似乎散發(fā)著某種神秘的魔力。
