They were all sittin' there in black robes an' I kep' droppin' me notes and forgettin' all them dates yeh looked up fer me, Hermione.
他們都穿著黑袍子坐在那里，我一直丟筆記，又把你幫我查到的所有那些日期全忘記了，赫敏。
An' then Lucius Malfoy stood up an' said his bit, and the Committee jus' did exac'ly what he told 'em..."
后來盧修斯馬爾福站起來說了話，委員會就完完全全照他的要求做了……”
'There's still the appeal!' said Ron fiercely. 'Don't give up yet, we're working on it!'
“還可以上訴呢！”羅恩大怒著說道，“別放棄，我們正在研究呢！”
They were walking back up to the castle with the rest of the class.
他們和班上同學一起走回城堡。
Ahead they could see Malfoy, who was walking with Crabbe and Goyle, and kept looking back, laughing derisively.

I'm jus' gonna make sure the rest o' Beaky's time is the happiest he's ever had. I owe him that..."
我現在只能保證讓比克（海格對巴克比克的愛稱）死前過上它有生以來最快樂的日子。我欠它的啊……”
Hagrid turned round and hurried back towards his cabin, his face buried in his handkerchief.

'Look at him blubber!' Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle had been standing just inside the castle doors, listening.

'Have you ever seen anything quite as pathetic?' said Malfoy. 'And he's supposed to be our teacher!'
“你們看到過這樣可憐的東西嗎？”馬爾福說，“他還算是我們的老師呢！”
