CHAPTER ONE
THE BOY WHO LIVED
J.K. Rowling從一開始就在描述The Dursleys
沒有這個家一直照顧Harry到17歲，如果Harry住在別人的家，故事會如何呢？
（難不成要跟石內卜住一起，兩個人會決鬥吧...）
Mrs. Dursley一直沒有跟Harry提過他小時候就認識Snape，就算有一次她兒子Dudley遇到了Dementor，她也只說那個boy，Harry也一直以為她指得是James Potter
沒想到...就是指Snape啊～如果早就知道這層關係，他們之間好像還是不會有甚麼改變O.O
書的前面就一直在講他們是再平凡不過的家庭，他們真得很討厭Magic甚至是不承認他們存在
James Potter在他們家中就是個good-for-nothing的人，事實上他家很有錢，在Gringotts Wizarding Bank有很多錢，不需要上班倒是真的
這大概也造就他小時候傲嬌像馬份小時候一樣欺負人的個性吧(可憐的Severus)
默哀一下Vernon Dursley電影的演員也已經過世了
書上說Vernon Dursley是beefy的人，說Petunia Dursley是twice the usual amount of neck用來craning over garden fences真得馬上有畫面
他們最大的祕密就是the Potters...
The Dursleys shuddered to think what the neighbors would
say if the Potters arrived in the street. (請善用if would假設句型...表示這件事情不曾發生...發生還得了的意思XD)
寫得真是誇張XD
pecked Mrs.Dursley on the cheek - Vernon Dursley快速的親了一下Petunia Dursley，非常傳統的goodbye方式
"Little tyke," chortled Mr. Dursley as he left the house. He got into his car and backed out of number four's drive.
小孩把cereal丟在牆上還可以chortle說"小淘氣"我真得沒有這種對小孩的耐性XD
Vernon Dursley見到Minerva McGonagall變成貓he jerked his head around to look again很好笑
the getups you saw on young people! 穿奇怪的衣服的人
He drummed his fingers on the steering wheel不耐煩的時候常常會做的動作XD
Vernon Dursley出門一路上見到一堆異相...這倒是電影裡沒有演到的
they pointed and gazed open- mouthed as owl after owl sped overhead大白天看到一堆貓頭鷹難怪會驚訝到嘴巴都打開了
he couldn't see a single collecting tin. Vernon Dursley試圖認定這麼多長袍的怪人是募捐的人...
He dashed back across the road, hurried up to his office, snapped at his secretary not to disturb him, seized his telephone, and had almost finished dialing his home number when he changed his mind. He put the receiver back down and stroked his mustache, thinking... no, he was being stupid.
好多動作，寫得很緊湊
And the old man hugged Mr. Dursley around the middle and walked off. 原來You-Know-Who死了...大家都很High
He was rattled - Vernon Dursley真是個活寶...
Viewers as far apart as Kent, Yorkshire, and Dundee Kent是英國南區右下角 Yorkshire是中間 Dundee是北到蘇格蘭了 這應該是要表示全國上下吧...
"So?" snapped Mrs. Dursley. 生氣的Petunia...(我每次看到snap都想到"理智線斷掉")
Mrs. Dursley sipped her tea through pursed lips. Mr. Dursley wondered whether he dared tell her he'd heard the name "Potter." He decided he didn't dare.很有畫面 怕老婆嗎XD?
Mr. Dursley crept to the bedroom window and peered down into the front garden. 他真得很怕XD
我突然想起來電影裡面Minerva McGonagall跟Albus Dumbledore說:I've watched them all day. They are the worst sort of Muggles. XD
The cat's tail twitched and its eyes narrowed. 形容貓尾巴動來動去跟眼睛瞇起來 好可愛
He was wearing long robes, a purple cloak that swept the ground, and high-heeled, buckled boots
燈燈燈，老鄧登場，咦，穿著跟電視上怎麼不太一樣
He was busy rummaging in his cloak 找啊找
He chuckled and muttered, "I should have known." 喔喔 電影裡的第一句話
He flicked it open, held it up in the air, and clicked it. The nearest street lamp went out with a little pop. He clicked it again -- the next lamp flickered into darkness. Twelve times he clicked the Put-Outer, until the only lights left on the whole street were two tiny pinpricks in the distance, which were the eyes of the cat watching him. If anyone looked out of their window now, even beady-eyed
Mrs. Dursley, they wouldn't be able to see anything that was happening down on the pavement.
Deluminator第一次被使用，記得到電影第七集才再次出現
Her black hair was drawn into a tight bun. She looked distinctly ruffled.
Minerva McGonagall出場~~
But that's no reason to lose our heads. People are being downright careless喂喂...佛地魔還沒死啊...
She threw a sharp, sideways glance at Dumbledore here, as though hoping he was going to tell her something
Professor McGonagall flinched, but Dumbledore, who was unsticking two lemon drops, seemed not to notice. 他們對話好多XD還是電影省略了一些
said Professor McGonagall, sounding half exasperated 為什麼惱怒~~??
I haven't blushed so much since Madam Pomfrey told me she liked my new earmuffs
真幽默啊...老鄧
"What they're saying," she pressed on, "is that last night Voldemort turned up in Godric's Hollow. He went to find the Potters. The rumor is that Lily and James Potter are -- are -- that they're -- dead. "
死了~~T_T
Dumbledore nodded glumly. So sad...
It's -- it's true?" faltered Professor McGonagall. "After all he's done... all the people he's killed... he couldn't kill a little boy? 佛地魔還沒有死啊...
"I'm not saying his heart isn't in the right place," said Professor McGonagall grudgingly, "but you can't pretend he's not careless. He does tend to -- what was that?"
不可靠的海格...
A low rumbling sound had broken the silence around them. It grew steadily louder as they looked up and down the street for some sign of a headlight; it swelled to a roar as they both looked up at the sky -- and a huge motorcycle fell out of the air and landed on the road in front of them.
形容機車隆隆聲越來越大
If the motorcycle was huge, it was nothing to the man sitting astride it. 形容Hagrid非常高大
Inside, just visible, was a baby boy, fast asleep. Under a tuft of jet-black hair over his forehead they could see a curiously shaped cut, like a bolt of lightning. 睡得很熟的Harry登場
He bent his great, shaggy head over Harry and gave him what must have been a very scratchy, whiskery kiss. Then, suddenly, Hagrid let out a howl like a wounded dog.
Professor McGonagall whispered, patting Hagrid gingerly on the arm as Dumbledore stepped over the low garden wall and walked to the front door.
Hagrid真得是很有感情XD
"Yeah," said Hagrid in a very muffled voice, "I'll be takin' Sirius his bike back. Sirus要被關了啊...
Wiping his streaming eyes on his jacket sleeve, Hagrid swung himself onto the motorcycle and kicked the engine into life
He clicked it once, and twelve balls of light sped back to their street lamps so that Privet Drive glowed suddenly orange and he could make out a tabby cat slinking around the corner at the other end of the street.
"Good luck, Harry," he murmured. He turned on his heel and with a swish
of his cloak, he was gone.
A breeze ruffled the neat hedges of Privet Drive, which lay silent and tidy under the inky sky, the very last place you would expect astonishing things to happen. Harry Potter rolled over inside his
blankets without waking up. One small hand closed on the letter beside him and he slept on, not knowing he was special, not knowing he was famous, not knowing he would be woken in a few hours' time by Mrs. Dursley's scream as she opened the front door to put out the milk bottles, nor that he would spend the next few weeks being prodded and pinched by his cousin Dudley... He couldn't know that at this very moment, people meeting in secret all over the country were holding up
their glasses and saying in hushed voices: "To Harry Potter -- the boy who lived!"
到這裡14頁，電影三分鐘演完XD
10年後...
Ten years ago, there had been lots of pictures of what looked like a large pink beach ball wearing different-colored bonnets
His Aunt Petunia was awake and it was her shrill voice that made the first noise of the day.
Harry woke with a start. His aunt rapped on the door again.
"Up!" she screeched.
阿姨一直叫一直叫....
Harry had a thin face, knobbly knees, black hair, and bright green eyes
10歲Harry登場
Harry, who could see a huge Dudley tantrum coming on, began wolfing down his bacon as fast as possible in case Dudley turned the table over.
這裡的哈利比電影的不可憐一點，因為他可以坐在桌前吃飯XD
Aunt Petunia obviously scented danger, too...
"And come back and find the house in ruins?" she snarled. 阿姨好兇
he knew that if he screwed up his face and wailed, his mother would give him anything he wanted.
"Dinky Duddydums, don't cry, Mummy won't let him spoil your special day!" she cried, flinging her arms around him. 差別待遇啊~~
"Oh, good Lord, they're here!" said Aunt Petunia frantically
Piers was a scrawny boy with a face like a rat. 這是誰啊...
http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Piers_Polkiss 還真得有...
接下來哈利不小心用魔法的過程蠻好笑的XD
Aunt Petunia had been trying to force him into a revolting old sweater of Dudley's (brown with orange puff balls) 也太噁心
"... roaring along like maniacs, the young hoodlums," he said, as a motorcycle overtook them. 被一群幫派份子超車
his face like a gigantic beet with a mustache: "MOTORCYCLES DON'T FLY!" 生氣到臉變成甜菜...
Dudley and Piers sniggered.竊笑的孩子
Dudley had a tantrum because his knickerbocker glory didn't have enough ice cream on top,http://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english-chinese-traditional/snap

In this fashion my pal Wesley Virgin's adventure launches in this SHOCKING AND CONTROVERSIAL video.
回覆刪除You see, Wesley was in the military-and shortly after leaving-he found hidden, "self mind control" tactics that the CIA and others used to get anything they want.
These are the same SECRETS tons of famous people (notably those who "became famous out of nowhere") and top business people used to become rich and successful.
You've heard that you only use 10% of your brain.
That's mostly because most of your brain's power is UNCONSCIOUS.
Maybe this expression has even taken place INSIDE your very own brain... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's brain seven years back, while riding a non-registered, beat-up trash bucket of a vehicle without a license and $3 on his debit card.
"I'm absolutely frustrated with living paycheck to paycheck! When will I finally make it?"
You've taken part in those conversations, isn't it so?
Your success story is waiting to start. You need to start believing in YOURSELF.
