Harry made his way down to the end-of-year feast alone that night.
那天晚上，哈利獨自下樓去參加年終宴會。
He had been held up by Madam Pomfrey's fussing about,
剛才龐弗雷夫人大驚小怪地攔住他，
insisting on giving him one last checkup, so the Great Hall was already full.
堅持要給他再檢查一遍身體，所以，當他趕到禮堂時，里面已經坐滿了人。
It was decked out in the Slytherin colors of green and silver to celebrate Slytherin's winning the house cup for the seventh year in a row.
禮堂里用代表斯萊特林的綠色和銀色裝飾一新，以慶祝他們連續七年贏得了學院杯冠軍。
A huge banner showing the Slytherin serpent covered the wall behind the High Table.
主賓席后面的墻上，掛著一條繪著斯萊特林蛇的巨大橫幅。
When Harry walked in there was a sudden hush,
哈利一走進去，禮堂里突然鴉雀無聲，
and then everybody started talking loudly at once.
然后突然每個人又開始高聲說話。
He slipped into a seat between Ron and Hermione at the Gryffindor table
他走到格蘭芬多的桌子旁，坐在了羅恩和赫敏中間，
and tried to ignore the fact that people were standing up to look at him.
假裝沒有注意到人們都站起來盯著他看。
Fortunately, Dumbledore arrived moments later. The babble died away.
幸好，片刻之后，鄧布利多也趕到了，禮堂里的嘈雜聲漸漸平息下來。
"Another year gone!" Dumbledore said cheerfully. "
“又是一年過去了！”鄧布利多興高采烈地說，“
And I must trouble you with an old man's wheezing waffle before we sink our teeth into our delicious feast.
在盡情享受這些美味佳肴之前，我必須麻煩大家聽聽一個老頭子的陳詞濫調。
What a year it has been! Hopefully your heads are all a little fuller than they were...
這是多么精彩的一年！你們的小腦瓜里肯定都比過去豐富了一些……
you have the whole summer ahead to get them nice and empty before next year starts....
前面有整個暑假在等著你們，可以讓你們在下學期開始之前，好好把那些東西消化消化，讓腦子里騰出空來……
"Now, as I understand it, the house cup here needs awarding, and the points stand thus:
“現在，據我所知，我們首先要進行學院杯的頒獎儀式，各學院的具體得分如下：
In fourth place, Gryffindor, with three hundred and twelve points;
第四名，格蘭芬多，三百一十二分；
in third, Hufflepuff, with three hundred and fifty-two;
第三名，赫奇帕奇，三百五十二分；
Ravenclaw has four hundred and twenty-six and Slytherin, four hundred and seventy- two."
拉文克勞四百二十六分，斯萊特林四百七十二分。”
A storm of cheering and stamping broke out from the Slytherin table.
斯萊特林的餐桌上爆發出一陣雷鳴般的歡呼聲和跺腳聲。
Harry could see Draco Malfoy banging his goblet on the table. It was a sickening sight.
哈利看見德拉科·馬爾福用高腳酒杯使勁敲打著桌子，那副樣子真讓人惡心。
"Yes, Yes, well done, Slytherin," said Dumbledore.
“是啊，是啊，表現不錯。”鄧布利多說，
"However, recent events must be taken into account."
“不過，最近發生的幾件事也必須計算在內。”
