The room went very still. The Slytherins' smiles faded a little.
礼堂里变得非常安静,斯莱特林们的笑容也收敛了一些。
Ahem, said Dumbledore.
“呃,呃,”邓布利多清了清嗓子,
"I have a few last-minute points to dish out.
“我还有最后一些分数要分配。让我看看。对了……
Let me see. Yes...First — to Mr. Ronald Weasley...
让我看看。对了……第一项——罗恩韦斯莱先生……”
Ron went purple in the face;
罗恩的脸一下子涨得通红,
he looked like a radish with a bad sunburn.
那样子活像一个被太阳晒于的红萝卜。
...for the best-played game of chess Hogwarts has seen in many years,
“……他下赢了许多年来霍格沃茨最精彩的一盘棋,
I award Gryffindor house fifty points.
我为此奖励格兰芬多学院五十分。”
Gryffindor cheers nearly raised the bewitched ceiling;
格兰芬多们的欢呼声差点把施了魔法的天花板掀翻了。
the stars overhead seemed to quiver.
他们头顶上的星星似乎也被震得微微颤抖。
Percy could be heard telling the other prefects,
可以听见珀西在大声告诉其他级长:
"My brother, you know! My youngest brother!
“是我弟弟,你们知道的!我最小的弟弟!
Got past McGonagall's giant chess set!"
顺利通过了麦格教授的巨型棋盘阵!”
At last there was silence again.
大家好不容易才又平静下来。
Second — to Miss Hermione Granger...
“第二项——赫敏格兰杰小姐……
for the use of cool logic in the face of fire,
她面对烈火,冷静地进行逻辑推理,
I award Gryffindor house fifty points.
我要奖励格兰芬多学院五十分。”
Hermione buried her face in her arms;
赫敏把脸埋在臂弯里;
Harry strongly suspected she had burst into tears.
哈利怀疑她肯定是偷偷地哭了。
Gryffindors up and down the table were beside themselves
他们周围格兰芬多的同学们都欣喜若狂,在餐桌旁跳上跳下
they were a hundred points up.
他们整整上升了一百分!
"Third — to Mr. Harry Potter..." said Dumbledore.
“第三项——哈利波特……”邓布利多说。
The room went deadly quiet for pure nerve and outstanding courage,
礼堂里顿时变得格外寂静。 “……他表现出了大无畏的胆量和过人的勇气,
I award Gryffindor house sixty points."
为此,我还要奖励格兰芬多学院六十分。”
The din was deafening.
喧闹声简直震耳欲聋。
Those who could add up while yelling themselves hoarse knew that Gryffindor now had four hundred and seventy-two points
那些一边把嗓子喊得嘶哑,一边还能在心里计算分数的同学们知道,格兰芬多现在是四百七十二分
exactly the same as Slytherin.
和斯莱特林的分数完全一样。
They had tied for the house cup
他们已经直逼学院杯冠军
if only Dumbledore had given Harry just one more point.
如果邓布利多多奖给哈利一分就好了。
