'Until we meet again,' said Professor Trelawney faintly, 'fair fortune be yours.
“在我們再見面以前，”特里勞妮教授虛弱地說道，“祝大家好運。
Oh, and dear —' she pointed at Neville, 'you'll be late next time, so mind you work extra hard to catch up.'
哦，親愛的——”她指指納威，“下堂課你會遲到，所以，記著要額外努力才能趕上大家。”
Harry, Ron and Hermione descended Professor Trelawney's ladder and the winding staircase in silence,
哈利、羅恩和赫敏一言不發地走下特里勞妮教授的樓梯和螺旋形樓梯，
then set off for Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration lesson.
然后去上麥格教授的變形課。
It took them so long to find her classroom that, early as they had left Divination, they were only just in time.
他們花了很長時間才找到了教室，所以，盡管早就離開了占卜課教室，他們也不過剛剛趕上點。
Harry chose a seat right at the back of the room, feeling as though he was sitting in a very bright spotlight;
哈利挑了個后排座位，覺得自己好像是坐在特別顯眼的地方一樣；
the rest of the class kept shooting furtive glances at him, as though he was about to drop dead at any moment.
班上其他人不斷向他投來鬼鬼祟祟的目光，好像他隨時都會倒地而死。
He hardly heard what Professor McGonagall was telling them about Animagi (wizards who could transform at will into animals),
麥格教授在對他們講授有關阿尼馬吉（能夠使人隨心所欲地變成各種動物的魔法）的知識，
and wasn't even watching when she transformed herself in front of their eyes into a tabby cat with spectacle markings around her eyes.
他幾乎全沒聽進去。她在眾目睽睽之下變成了一只斑貓，眼睛周圍有眼鏡的痕跡，哈利甚至看都沒看。
'Really, what has got into you all today?' said Professor McGonagall, turning back into herself with a faint pop, and staring around at them all.
“說真的，你們今天都怎么了？”麥格教授說，這時，伴隨著輕微的噗的一聲。她已經變回原形，并且環視著這些學生。
'Not that it matters, but that's the first time my transformation's not got applause from a class.'
“這倒不要緊，不過我的變形沒有博得全班的掌聲，這還是第一次。”
Everybody's heads turned towards Harry again, but nobody spoke.
大家的腦袋都再次轉向哈利，但沒人說話。
Then Hermione raised her hand.
這時赫敏舉起了手。
'Please, Professor, we've just had our first Divination class, and we were reading the tea leaves, and —'
“教授，我們剛剛上了占卜課，我們讀解茶葉，而且——”
