5 Diagon Alley

CHAPTER FIVE DIAGON ALLEY Harry woke early the next morning. Although he could tell it was daylight, he kept his eyes shut tight. "It was a dream," he told himself firmly. "I dreamed a giant called Hagrid came to tell me I was going to a school for wizards. When I open my eyes I'll be at home in my cupboard." There was suddenly a loud tapping noise.

第五章对角巷第二天一大早哈利就醒了。 虽然他看得出已经天亮了，但他还是紧紧地闭着眼睛。 “这是个梦，”他坚定地告诉自己。 “我梦见一个叫海格的巨人来告诉我，我要去一所巫师学校。 当我睁开眼睛的时候，我会在家里的橱柜里。” 突然传来一声很响的敲击声。

And there's Aunt Petunia knocking on the door, Harry thought, his heart sinking. But he still didn't open his eyes. It had been such a good dream. Tap. Tap. Tap. "All right," Harry mumbled, "I'm getting up." He sat up and Hagrid's heavy coat fell off him. The hut was full of sunlight, the storm was over, Hagrid himself was asleep on the collapsed sofa, and there was an owl rapping its claw on the window, a newspaper held in its beak. Harry scrambled to his feet, so happy he felt as though a large balloon was swelling inside him. He went straight to the window and jerked it open. The owl swooped in and dropped the newspaper on top of Hagrid, who didn't wake up. The owl then fluttered onto the floor and began to attack Hagrid's coat. "Don't do that." Harry tried to wave the owl out of the way, but it snapped its beak fiercely at him and carried on

还有佩妮姨妈在敲门，哈利想，他的心一沉。 但他仍然没有睁开眼睛。 这真是一个好梦。 水龙头。水龙头。水龙头。“好吧，”哈利咕哝道，“我要起床了。” 他坐了起来，海格的厚外套从他身上掉了下来。 小屋里阳光明媚，暴风雨过去了，海格本人在塌下来的沙发上睡着了，一只猫头鹰用爪子敲着窗户，嘴里叼着一份报纸。 哈利爬了起来，他高兴得好像有一个大气球在他肚子里膨胀起来。 他径直走到窗前，猛地把它拉开。 猫头鹰扑了进来，把报纸扔在海格身上，他没有醒来。 猫头鹰扑扇着翅膀飞到地板上，开始攻击海格的外套。 “不要那样做。”哈利想挥手让那只猫头鹰走开，但它狠狠地朝他啪地一声，继续往前走

savaging the coat. "Hagrid!" said Harry loudly. "There's an owl—" "Pay him," Hagrid grunted into the sofa. "What?" "He wants payin' fer deliverin' the paper. Look in the pockets." Hagrid's coat seemed to be made of nothing but pockets bunches of keys, slug pellets, balls of string, peppermint humbugs, teabags finally, Harry pulled out a handful of strange-looking coins. "Give him five Knuts," said Hagrid sleepily. "Knuts?" "The little bronze ones." Harry counted out five little bronze coins, and the owl held out his leg so Harry could put the money into a small leather pouch tied to it. Then he flew off through the open window. Hagrid yawned loudly, sat up, and stretched.

撕扯大衣。“海格！”哈利大声说。 “付钱给他。”海格对着沙发咕哝道。 “什么?”“他送报纸要钱。 看看口袋里。”海格的外套似乎只有口袋、一串串钥匙、鼻涕虫弹、绳子球、薄荷假糖、茶包。最后，哈利掏出一把奇形怪状的硬币。 “给他五个纳特。”海格困倦地说。 “来?”“小铜像。” 哈利数出了五个铜钱，猫头鹰伸出腿，让哈利把钱放进绑在腿上的一个小皮袋里。 然后他从开着的窗户飞走了。 海格大声打了个呵欠，坐了起来，伸了个懒腰。

"Best be off, Harry, lots ter do today, gotta get up ter London an' buy all yer stuff fer school." Harry was turning over the wizard coins and looking at them. He had just thought of something that made him feel as though the happy balloon inside him had got a puncture. "Um Hagrid?" "Mm?" said Hagrid, who was pulling on his huge boots. "I haven't got any money and you heard Uncle Vernon last night he won't pay for me to go and learn magic." "Don't worry about that," said Hagrid, standing up and scratching his head. "D'yeh think yer parents didn't leave yeh anything?" "But if their house was destroyed—" "They didn' keep their gold in the house, boy! Nah, first stop fer us is Gringotts. Wizards' bank. Have a sausage, they're not bad cold an' I

“最好走了，哈利，今天有很多事要做，要去伦敦买你上学要用的东西。” 哈利把巫师的硬币翻过来看着。 他刚刚想到了一件事，让他觉得自己内心的快乐气球被戳破了。 “嗯。海格?”“嗯？”海格说，他正在穿上他的大靴子。 “我没有钱，你昨天晚上也听到弗农姨父说他不会出钱让我去学魔法的。” “别担心。”海格说着站了起来，搔着头。 “你以为你父母什么也没给你留下吗？”“但如果他们的房子被毁了——”“他们没有把金子放在房子里，孩子！不，我们去的第一站是古灵阁。 向导的银行。吃根香肠吧，它们不太冷，对吧

wouldn' say no teh a bit o' yer birthday cake, neither." "Wizards have banks?" "Just the one. Gringotts. Run by goblins." Harry dropped the bit of sausage he was holding. "Goblins?" "Yeah so yeh'd be mad ter try an' rob it, I'll tell yeh that. Never mess with goblins, Harry. Gringotts is the safest place in the world fer anything yeh want ter keep safe— 'cept maybe Hogwarts. As a matter o' fact, I gotta visit Gringotts anyway. Fer Dumbledore. Hogwarts business." Hagrid drew himself up proudly. "He usually gets me ter do important stuff fer him. Fetchin' you gettin' things from Gringotts knows he can trust me, see. "Got everythin'? Come on, then." Harry followed Hagrid out onto the rock. The sky was quite clear now and the sea gleamed in

我也不会拒绝你的生日蛋糕。” “巫师有银行？”“只有一个。 古灵阁。由半兽人管理。” 哈利手里拿着的香肠掉在地上。 “小妖精?”“是啊，所以我告诉你，如果你想抢它，那你就是疯了。 永远不要惹妖精，哈利。 古灵阁是世界上最安全的地方，除了霍格沃茨，你可以把任何东西都保管好。 事实上，我还是要去古灵阁看看。 邓布利多带。霍格沃茨的业务。” 海格骄傲地挺直了身子。 “他通常让我帮他做重要的事情。 从古灵阁拿东西的人知道他可以信任我。 “有东西保存”?那就来吧。” 哈利跟着海格走到岩石上。 现在天空非常晴朗，大海在闪烁

the sunlight. The boat Uncle Vernon had hired was still there, with a lot of water in the bottom after the storm. "How did you get here?" Harry asked, looking around for another boat. "Flew," said Hagrid. "Flew?" "Yeah but we'll go back in this. Not s'pposed ter use magic now I've got yeh." They settled down in the boat, Harry still staring at Hagrid, trying to imagine him flying. "Seems a shame ter row, though," said Hagrid, giving Harry another of his sideways looks. "If I was ter er speed things up a bit, would yeh mind not mentionin' it at Hogwarts?" "Of course not," said Harry, eager to see more magic. Hagrid pulled out the pink umbrella again, tapped it twice on the side of the boat, and they sped off toward land.

阳光。弗农姨父租的那条船还在那儿，暴风雨过后，船底积了很多水。 “你怎么到这儿来的？”哈利问，四处寻找另一艘船。 “飞。”海格说。“飞?”“是啊，但我们会回去的。 既然我抓住了你，我就不反对使用魔法了。” 他们在船上坐了下来，哈利仍然盯着海格，努力想象他在飞翔。 “不过划船也太可惜了。”海格说着，又斜眼看了哈利一眼。 “如果我能加快一点速度，你不介意在霍格沃茨提这件事吗？”“当然不会。”哈利说，渴望看到更多的魔法。 海格又抽出那把粉红色的伞，在船舷上敲了两下，他们就飞快地向陆地飞去了。
