上一集說到，哈利無法看到寄給自己的信，因為弗農(nóng)姨父和佩妮姨媽十分抗拒讓他知曉。今天的內(nèi)容依然是相關(guān)劇情，哈利想要反擊，他能否成功？請結(jié)合今天有聲讀物的mp3及下方的原文和翻譯，開始今天的聽力練習(xí)吧！

原文及翻譯

The next morning at breakfast, everyone was rather quiet. Dudley was in shock. He'd screamed, whacked his father with his Smelting stick, been sick on purpose, kicked his mother, and thrown his tortoise through the greenhouse roof, and he still didn't have his room back. Harry was thinking about this time yesterday and bitterly wishing he'd opened the letter in the hall. Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia kept looking at each other darkly. When the mail arrived, Uncle Vernon, who seemed to be trying to be nice to Harry, made Dudley go and get it. 

第二天早上吃早餐時，大家都很安靜。達(dá)力很震驚。他尖叫，用斯梅廷棍打他爸爸，故意嘔吐，踢他媽媽，把烏龜扔出溫室屋頂，但他還是沒能要回自己的房間。哈利想起昨天的這個時候，心里非常希望自己在走廊里打開了這封信。弗農(nóng)姨父和佩妮姨媽一直陰沉地看著對方。郵件到達(dá)時，弗農(nóng)姨父似乎想對哈利好一點，讓達(dá)力去拿。

They heard him banging things with his Smelting stick all the way down the hall. Then he shouted, "There's another one! 'Mr. H. Potter, The Smallest Bedroom, 4 Privet Drive — '" With a strangled cry, Uncle Vernon leaped from his seat and ran down the hall, Harry right behind him. 

他們聽到他用斯梅廷棍一路敲打著走廊里的東西。然后他喊道：“又來一封信！‘最小臥室，女貞路 4 號，H. 波特先生——’”弗農(nóng)姨父哽咽地叫了一聲，從座位上跳起來，跑下走廊，哈利緊隨其后。

Uncle Vernon had to wrestle Dudley to the ground to get the letter from him, which was made difficult by the fact that Harry had grabbed Uncle Vernon around the neck from behind. After a minute of confused fighting, in which everyone got hit a lot by the Smelting stick, Uncle Vernon straightened up, gasping for breath, with Harry's letter clutched in his hand. 

弗農(nóng)姨父不得不把達(dá)力摔倒在地才能從他手里拿到信，而哈利從后面抓住了弗農(nóng)姨父的脖子，這讓事情變得困難。經(jīng)過一分鐘的混亂打斗，每個人都被斯梅廷棍打了好幾下，弗農(nóng)姨父直起身來，喘著粗氣，手里緊緊抓著哈利的信。

"Go to your cupboard — I mean, your bedroom," he wheezed at Harry. "Dudley — go — just go." Harry walked round and round his new room. Someone knew he had moved out of his cupboard and they seemed to know he hadn't received his first letter. Surely that meant they'd try again? And this time he'd make sure they didn't fail. 

“去你的櫥柜——我是說你的臥室，”他氣喘吁吁地對哈利說。“達(dá)力——走——快走。”哈利在他的新房間里走了一圈又一圈。有人知道他搬出了櫥柜，他們似乎知道他沒有收到第一封信。這肯定意味著他們會再試一次？這次他會確保他們不會失敗。

He had a plan. The repaired alarm clock rang at six o'clock the next morning. Harry turned it off quickly and dressed silently. He mustn't wake the Dursleys. He stole downstairs without turning on any of the lights. He was going to wait for the postman on the corner of Privet Drive and get the letters for number four first. His heart hammered as he crept across the dark hall toward the front door — "AAAAARRRGH!" Harry leaped into the air; he'd trodden on something big and squashy on the doormat — something alive! 

他有一個計劃。修好的鬧鐘第二天早上六點響了。哈利迅速關(guān)掉鬧鐘，默默地穿好衣服。他不能吵醒德思禮一家。他偷偷溜下樓，沒有打開任何燈。他打算在女貞路的拐角處等郵遞員，先去取四號的信。他穿過黑暗的大廳，朝前門走去，心臟怦怦直跳——“啊啊啊啊??！”哈利跳了起來；他踩到了門墊上一個又大又軟的東西——一個活生生的東西！

Lights clicked on upstairs and to his horror, Harry realized that the big, squashy something had been his uncle's face. Uncle Vernon had been lying at the foot of the front door in a sleeping bag, clearly making sure that Harry didn't do exactly what he'd been trying to do. 

樓上的燈亮了，哈利驚恐地發(fā)現(xiàn)，那個又大又軟的東西是他叔叔的臉。弗農(nóng)姨父一直躺在前門腳下的睡袋里，顯然是為了確保哈利不會做他想做的事。

He shouted at Harry for about half an hour and then told him to go and make a cup of tea. Harry shuffled miserably off into the kitchen and by the time he got back, the mail had arrived, right into Uncle Vernon's lap. Harry could see three letters addressed in green ink. "I want — " he began, but Uncle Vernon was tearing the letters into pieces before his eyes. 

他對哈利吼了半個小時，然后叫他去泡杯茶。哈利可憐兮兮地走進(jìn)廚房，等他回來的時候，郵件已經(jīng)到了，就在弗農(nóng)姨父的腿上。哈利看到三封用綠色墨水寫的信。 “我想要——”他開口道，但弗農(nóng)姨父卻在他眼前把信撕成碎片。

Uncle Vernon didn't go to work that day. He stayed at home and nailed up the mail slot. "See," he explained to Aunt Petunia through a mouthful of nails, "if they can't deliver them they'll just give up." "I'm not sure that'll work, Vernon." "Oh, these people's minds work in strange ways, Petunia, they're not like you and me," said Uncle Vernon, trying to knock in a nail with the piece of fruitcake Aunt Petunia had just brought him. 

弗農(nóng)姨父那天沒去上班。他待在家里，釘上了信箱。“你看，”他嘴里塞滿釘子，向佩妮姨媽解釋道，“如果他們送不上信，他們就會放棄。”“我不確定這是否可行，弗農(nóng)。”“哦，這些人的思維方式很奇怪，佩妮，他們和你我不一樣，”弗農(nóng)姨父說，試圖用佩妮姨媽剛帶給他的水果蛋糕敲釘子。

On Friday, no less than twelve letters arrived for Harry. As they couldn't go through the mail slot they had been pushed under the door, slotted through the sides, and a few even forced through the small window in the downstairs bathroom. Uncle Vernon stayed at home again. After burning all the letters, he got out a hammer and nails and boarded up the cracks around the front and back doors so no one could go out. He hummed "Tiptoe Through the Tulips" as he worked, and jumped at small noises.

星期五，哈利收到了至少十二封信。由于無法通過信箱，它們被塞到門下，從側(cè)面塞進(jìn)去，甚至有幾封被強(qiáng)行塞進(jìn)樓下浴室的小窗戶。弗農(nóng)姨父又待在家里了。燒掉所有信件后，他拿出錘子和釘子，用木板封住了前后門的縫隙，這樣就沒人能出去了。他一邊干活，一邊哼著《踮著腳尖穿過郁金香》，聽到一點動靜就嚇得跳起來。

弗農(nóng)姨父已經(jīng)到了瘋魔的地步，為了不讓哈利收到信，他還會做出怎樣瘋狂的舉動?關(guān)注本欄目，敬請期待下一期。每日的有聲讀物帶讀將同您一起探索哈利波特的魔法世界。您也可以訪問網(wǎng)站主頁，獲取最新的英語學(xué)習(xí)資料，全方位提升英語水平。
