And at once, thin ink lines began to spread like a spider's web from the point that George's wand had touched.
像蜘蛛網一樣細細的墨水線條立刻從魔杖剛才碰過的地方開始出現了。
They joined each other, they criss-crossed, they fanned into every corner of the parchment;
這些線條彼此匯合、彼此交叉，延伸到這張羊皮紙的每個角落；
then words began to blossom across the top, great, curly green words, that proclaimed:
然后羊皮紙上方開始出現字跡，是彎曲的綠色大字，它們是：
Messrs Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs Purveyors of Aids to Magical Mischief-Makers are proud to present
魔法惡作劇制作者的輔助物供應商月亮臉、蟲尾巴、大腳板和尖頭叉子諸位先生自豪地獻上
THE MARAUDER'S MAP
活點地圖
It was a map showing every detail of the Hogwarts castle and grounds.
這張地圖詳盡地畫出了霍格沃茨城堡和各場地的一切細節。
But the truly remarkable thing was the tiny ink dots moving around it, each labelled with a name in minuscule writing.
但是，真正值得注意的東西是沿著地圖移動的小小的墨水點，每個墨水點都用極小的字母標出一個姓名。
Astounded, Harry bent over it.
哈利大為驚訝，他俯身細看。
A labelled dot in the top left corner showed that Professor Dumbledore was pacing his study;
左上角的一個小墨水點顯示鄧布利多教授正在書房里踱步；
the caretaker's cat, Mrs Norris, was prowling the second floor, and Peeves the poltergeist was currently bouncing around the trophy room.
費爾奇的貓洛麗絲夫人正在三樓徘徊，而愛捉弄人的幽靈皮皮鬼正在獎品室里跳來跳去。
And as Harry's eyes travelled up and down the familiar corridors, he noticed something else.
哈利的眼光在他所熟悉的走廊里上下掃動。這時，他又注意到了什么東西。
This map showed a set of passages he had never entered. And many of them seemed to lead —
這張地圖顯示出一系列他以前從來沒有進去過的通道。這些通道之中有許多好像是通往——
'Right into Hogsmeade,' said Fred, tracing one of them with his finger.
“正是通往霍格莫德村的，”弗雷德用手指沿著一條通道指著說，
'There are seven in all. Now, Filch knows about these four —' he pointed them out, '– but we're sure we're the only ones who know about these.
“一共有七條呢。喏，費爾奇知道這四條——”他把那四條一一指出來，“——但是我們肯定只有我們知道這幾條。
Don't bother with the one behind the mirror on the fourth floor.
不必為五樓鏡子后面的那條費神，
We used it until last winter, but it's caved in — completely blocked.
去年冬天以前我們一直用它，但是它倒塌了——完全堵塞住了。
