Chapter 3 Harry in trouble Harry ran to the gamekeeper with Cook's message but he couldn't find the envelope anywhere. Then, running back into the house, he bumped into Mr. Paulfrey- who quickly hid something behind his back. "Where have you been, Grubb?" the butler snarled.
第三章哈利遇到麻烦哈利带着库克的信跑到猎场看守那里,但他到处找不到信封。 然后,他跑回屋里,撞到了保罗弗雷先生——后者迅速把什么东西藏在他背后。 “你上哪儿去了,格拉布?”男管家咆哮道。
Harry had promised never to tell what happened at the river, so he kept quiet. "Answer me boy!" Mr. Paulfrey shouted, but Harry simply looked down in silence. Cat got your tongue? Paulfrey thought for a moment. Then his mouth twisted into a cruel smile. "Since you don't want to talk to anyone, you can collect up all the boots and shoes and work outside."
哈利答应决不把河边发生的事说出去,所以他保持沉默。 “回答我,孩子!”保罗弗雷先生喊道,但哈利只是默默地低下头。 你说不出话来了?保罗弗雷想了一会儿。 然后他的嘴扭曲成一个残酷的微笑。 “既然你不想和任何人说话,你可以把所有的靴子和鞋子收起来,到外面工作。”
Harry worked for hours in the icy courtyard. He sat shaking, his fingers stiff with cold. He was beginning to despair, when he heard someone call him. Harry looked around and spotted Miss Charlotte. "Whatever are you doing out there in the cold?" she called. "Come in at once!"
哈利在结了冰的院子里干了好几个小时。 他坐着发抖,手指冻得僵硬。 正当他开始感到绝望时,他听到有人叫他。 哈利环顾四周,发现了夏洛蒂小姐。 “你在外面这么冷的地方干什么?”她喊道。 “马上进来!”
Did you hear me, Harry?
你听到了吗,哈利?
A few minutes later, Harry was thawing out and drinking hot soup beside the kitchen fire. Thank you, Miss Charlotte! But he couldn't relax for long. A door burst open and Colly strode into the kitchen. "Well, did you deliver my envelope?" he asked. "N-no," Harry admitted. "Harry!" said Colly, turning to go. "I'll just have to find the spare key," he muttered.
几分钟后,哈利在厨房的火炉旁暖和起来,喝着热汤。 谢谢你,夏洛蒂小姐!但他不能放松太久。 一扇门突然打开,科利大步走进厨房。 “嗯,你把我的信封送来了吗?”他问。 “不——不。”哈利承认。“哈利!”科利说着转身要走。 “我得去找备用钥匙。”他嘟囔着。
