Apart from his friends, the thing that Harry missed most about Hogwarts was Quidditch,
哈利除了想念朋友以外，對(duì)有關(guān)霍格沃茨的東西想得最多的就是魁地奇了。
the most popular sport in the magical world—highly dangerous, very exciting and played on broomsticks.
魁地奇是魔術(shù)界最受人喜愛(ài)的一項(xiàng)運(yùn)動(dòng)——危險(xiǎn)程度很高，極其令人興奮，而且是騎在飛天掃帚上玩的。
Harry happened to be a very good Quidditch player;
哈利碰巧是玩魁地奇的一把好手，
he had been the youngest person in a century to be picked for one of the Hogwarts house teams.
他是百年以來(lái)入選霍格沃茨學(xué)院隊(duì)的最年輕的隊(duì)員。
One of Harry's most prized possessions was his Nimbus Two Thousand racing broom.
哈利最心愛(ài)的三件寶物之一就是他的光輪2000飛天掃帚。
Harry put the leather case aside and picked up his last parcel.
哈利把這個(gè)皮匣子放在一旁，拿起最后一個(gè)包裹。
He recognised the untidy scrawl on the brown paper at once: this was from Hagrid, the Hogwarts gamekeeper.
他立刻就認(rèn)出了牛皮紙上那不整齊的字跡：這件禮物來(lái)自海格，他是霍格沃茨的狩獵場(chǎng)看守。
He tore off the top layer of paper and glimpsed something green and leathery, but before he could unwrap it properly,
他撕開(kāi)最上面的一層紙，看到了一件綠色皮質(zhì)的東西，但他還沒(méi)有來(lái)得及好好地打開(kāi)包裝，
the parcel gave a strange quiver, and whatever was inside it snapped loudly—as though it had jaws. Harry froze.
這個(gè)包裹就古怪地顫抖了一下，先不說(shuō)里面的東西是什么，就厲聲大叫起來(lái)——好像它是有嘴巴似的。哈利愣住了。
He knew that Hagrid would never send him anything dangerous on purpose,
他知道海格決不會(huì)有意送他什么危險(xiǎn)的東西，
but then, Hagrid didn't have a normal person's view of what was dangerous.
但對(duì)什么東西危險(xiǎn)，海格的看法是和普通人不一樣的。
Hagrid had been known to befriend giant spiders,
人們知道海格曾經(jīng)與巨大的毒蜘蛛為友，
buy vicious, three-headed dogs from men in pubs and sneak illegal dragon eggs into his cabin.
曾經(jīng)從小酒吧的客人手里買過(guò)有三個(gè)腦袋的烈性大狗，還曾經(jīng)偷偷地把非法的龍蛋拿到了他的小屋里。
Harry poked the parcel nervously.
哈利神經(jīng)質(zhì)地碰碰這個(gè)包裹。
It snapped loudly again.
它又厲聲叫了起來(lái)。
