They weren't in a room, as he had supposed.
他们不是跑进了房间里，哈利明白过来了。
They were in a corridor.
他们跑进了一条走廊。
The forbidden corridor on the third floor.
三楼那条禁止进入的走廊！
And now they knew why it was forbidden.
现在他们终于明白为什么这条走廊要严禁进入了。
They were looking straight into the eyes of a monstrous dog, a dog that filled the whole space between ceiling and floor.
在他们的前面站着一只巨大的狗！它站在那里，它的巨头一直顶到天花板！
It had three heads.
那只狗有三只头颅；
Three pairs of rolling, mad eyes; three noses, twitching and quivering in their direction;
三双圆滚滚凶恶的大眼；三只鼻子，每一只鼻子都冲着他们的方向喷着气；
three drooling mouths, saliva hanging in slippery ropes from yellowish fangs.
三张流着口水的大嘴，每一张大嘴里都长着可怕的淡黄色犬牙。
It was standing quite still, all six eyes staring at them,
它静静地站着，六只眼睛一动不动地盯着他们四人。
and Harry knew that the only reason they weren't already dead was that their sudden appearance had taken it by surprise,
哈利想，他们之所以现在还没被那只可怕的狗撕成碎片，只因为他们突然跑进来吓了它一跳。
but it was quickly getting over that, there was no mistaking what those thunderous growls meant.
不过它肯定很快就会恢复过来，到时候他们就全都逃不了啦。
Harry groped for the doorknob — between Filch and death, he'd take Filch.
哈利偷偷地摸索着门把手——在费驰和死亡之中，他情愿选择费驰。
They fell backward — Harry slammed the door shut, and they ran, they almost flew, back down the corridor.
他们一齐跌出门外！哈利使劲把门一关，大家爬起来就跑！他们跑得几乎像飞的一样快，一下子就跑出了走廊。
Filch must have hurried off to look for them somewhere else, because they didn't see him anywhere,
费驰可能到别的地方去找他们了，因为他们一路上都没有碰上他。
but they hardly cared — all they wanted to do was put as much space as possible between them and that monster.
可是谁都没有空去担心他——现在他们只想跑得离那头怪物越远越好。
They didn't stop running until they reached the portrait of the Fat Lady on the seventh floor.
他们一直跑上七楼看见肥大婶的画像才停下来。
Where on earth have you all been? she asked, looking at their bathrobes hanging off their shoulders and their flushed, sweaty faces.
你们跑到哪里去了？看到他们跑得满脸红通通的，全身都被汗浸透了，连长袍也扯到了肩膀外，肥大婶觉得十分奇怪。
Never mind that — pig snout, pig snout, panted Harry, and the portrait swung forward.
没什么……猪鼻子！猪鼻子！哈利气喘吁吁地说出口号。画像移动了。
