They think, up at the school, that Hagrid's been setting a — a — something on students. They've taken him to Azkaban.
“在学校里，他们认为海格最近放出一个——一个——什么东西加害学生。他们把他带到阿兹卡班去了。”
Aragog clicked his pincers furiously, and all around the hollow the sound was echoed by the crowd of spiders; it was like applause, except applause didn't usually make Harry feel sick with fear.
咔哒咔哒，阿拉戈克愤怒地舞动着大螯，这声音得到了凹地上那一大群蜘蛛的响应，这就像是掌声，只不过通常的掌声是不会使哈利恐惧得作呕的。
But that was years ago, said Aragog fretfully. "Years and years ago. I remember it well. That's why they made him leave the school. They believed that I was the monster that dwells in what they call the Chamber of Secrets. They thought that Hagrid had opened the Chamber and set me free."
“但那是很多年以前的事了，”阿拉戈克恼火地说道，“很多、很多年以前了。我记得很清楚。正是因为这件事，他们当时才让他离开学校的。他们相信我就是那只住在他们所谓的密室里的怪物。他们以为是海格打开了密室，把我放了出来。”
And you ... you didn't come from the Chamber of Secrets? said Harry, who could feel cold sweat on his forehead.
“那么你……你不是从密室里出来的？”哈利问，感到他脑门上出了一层冷汗。
I! said Aragog, clicking angrily. "I was not born in the castle. I come from a distant land. A traveler gave me to Hagrid when I was an egg. Hagrid was only a boy, but he cared for me, hidden in a cupboard in the castle, feeding me on scraps from the table. Hagrid is my good friend, and a good man. When I was discovered, and blamed for the death of a girl, he protected me. I have lived here in the forest ever since, where Hagrid still visits me. He even found me a wife, Mosag, and you see how our family has grown, all through Hagrid's goodness..."
“我！”阿拉戈克说，大螯愤怒地咔哒咔哒，“我不是生在城堡里的。我来自一个遥远的国度。当我还没有从蛋里孵出来时，一个旅游者把我送给了海格。当时海格还只是一个小孩子，但他照顾着我，把我藏在城堡的一个碗橱里，喂我吃撒在餐桌上的面包屑。海格是我的好朋友，他是一个好人。人们发现了我，并要我为一个姑娘的死承担责任时，是他保护了我。从那以后，我就一直住在这树林里，海格还经常来看我。他甚至还给我找了个妻子——莫萨格。你看到我们的家庭发展得多么兴旺，这都是托了海格的福……”
