6 Waking up

Chapter 6 Waking up The next thing Harry knew, he was waking up in a strange bed, in a bright, warm room. Looking around in surprise, he saw Anna grinning at him. "Where are we?" he asked. "How did we get here?"

哈利只知道自己醒在一张陌生的床上,在一个明亮、温暖的房间里。 他惊讶地环顾四周,看到安娜对他咧嘴笑着。 “我们在哪儿?”他问。“我们是怎么到这儿来的?”

"It was amazing," Anna began. "I was completely lost, when I saw the ghost of my dead mother." "What?" cried Harry. "I know it sounds crazy," Anna went on, "but she led me through the marshes, and then Edmund brought me here." "Who's Edmund?" asked Harry. She means me! "Hello again, Harry," said a tall man, with a grin. "We've already met on the marshes, but I was covered in bandages. Ready to come down for breakfast?"

“太神奇了,”安娜开始说。 “当我看到死去母亲的鬼魂时,我完全迷失了。” “什么?”哈利叫道。“我知道这听起来很疯狂,”安娜接着说,“但她领我穿过沼泽,然后爱德蒙把我带到这里。” “爱德蒙是谁?”哈利问。 她说的是我!“你好,哈利。”一个高个子男人咧嘴笑着说。 “我们已经在沼泽地见过面了,但我身上缠着绷带。 准备好下来吃早饭了吗?”

"Yes thank you, sir!" Harry said, leaping up. He liked Edmund at once. But who was he? Why did he wear bandages on his head? And how had he managed to control Lazarus? Downstairs, Edmund put more logs on the fire. "You don't have to call me sir, Harry," he said gently. "Now I'm sure you have hundreds of questions, but let's eat first.

“好的,谢谢您,先生!”哈利说着跳了起来。 他立刻喜欢上了爱德蒙。但他是谁? 他为什么在头上缠绷带? 他是怎样控制拉撒路的? 楼下,爱德蒙又往火里添了些木柴。 “你不必叫我先生,哈利。”他温和地说。 “现在我知道你有成百上千的问题,但我们先吃饭吧。

Edmund cooked Harry and Anna the best breakfast they had ever eaten, with plump sausages, runny eggs, crisp bacon and stacks of toast. "Edmund?" Harry asked, when he was too full for another bite, "Why were you wearing all those bandages last night?"

爱德蒙给哈利和安娜做了一顿他们吃过的最好吃的早餐,有丰满的香肠、溏心的鸡蛋、酥脆的培根和一堆堆吐司。 “埃德蒙?”哈利吃得太饱,一口也吃不下了,他问道,“你昨晚为什么缠着那些绷带?”

"Two reasons," Edmund replied. "One, so I'm not recognized, and two, so I don't breathe in any terrible marsh gas." Anna looked worried. "Why don't you want to be recognized?" she asked. "Have you done something wicked?" Edmund Edmund into his tea. "Oh no!" he said. "I just don't want someone to know I'm here. I had to leave Nether Bogey once before because of him," he added mysteriously. "This time I mean to stay."

“两个原因。”爱德蒙回答。 “一,这样我就不会被认出来,二,这样我就不会吸入任何可怕的沼气。” 安娜看起来很担心。“你为什么不想被认出来?”她问。 “你做了什么坏事吗?”爱德蒙喝着茶。 “哦,不!”“我只是不想让别人知道我在这里。 因为他,我曾经不得不离开尼瑟博吉一次。”他神秘地补充道。 “这次我打算留下来。”
