That's right, said Ron, catching on. "Why don't you leave us here, sir, we've only got one more corridor to go —"
“說的是啊，”羅恩立刻心領神會，“你不妨就送到這里吧，先生，我們只有一個走廊要走了。”
You know, Weasley, I think I will, said Lockhart. "I really should go and prepare my next class —"
“好吧，韋斯萊，就這樣吧，”洛哈特說，“我真應該去準備準備下一節的課了。”
And he hurried off.
他說完就匆匆地走了。
Prepare his class, Ron sneered after him. "Gone to curl his hair, more like."
“什么準備課，”羅恩對著他的背影嘲笑著，“去卷他的頭發還差不多。”
They let the rest of the Gryffindors draw ahead of them, then darted down a side passage and hurried off toward Moaning Myrtle's bathroom. But just as they were congratulating each other on their brilliant scheme —

We haven't seen her for ages, Professor, Harry went on hurriedly, treading on Ron's foot, "and we thought we'd sneak into the hospital wing, you know, and tell her the Mandrakes are nearly ready and, er, not to worry —"
“我們已經好長時間沒有看見她了，教授，”哈利踩了一下羅恩的腳，一口氣說道，“我們剛才想偷偷溜到醫院去，告訴她曼德拉草快要長成了，叫她不要擔心。”
Professor McGonagall was still staring at him, and for a moment, Harry thought she was going to explode, but when she spoke, it was in a strangely croaky voice.
麥格教授仍然盯著他，一時間，哈利以為她要大發雷霆。結果她說話了，聲音有些異樣的顫抖。
Of course, she said, and Harry, amazed, saw a tear glistening in her beady eye. "Of course, I realize this has all been hardest on the friends of those who have been...
“當然，”她說道，哈利吃驚地發現她犀利的眼睛里居然閃著一點兒淚花，“當然，我知道，對所有那些不幸的受害者的朋友來說，這痛苦確實是很難忍受的……
