语音讲解: As if his personal problems were not enough, Harry has a difficult exam to take. In June, Harry’s class will have to take the OWL exam, the most important exam at Hogwarts. All Harry and his classmates ever do is study. Furthermore,1 the Ministry of Magic doesn’t want anyone to think that Voldemort is back, so they have sent someone to stop Harry from telling people-- a horrible2 woman called Professor Umbridge. Professor Umbridge enjoys making Harry unhappy. She makes him write“I will not tell lies”with a magic pen. Every time he writes, the words are cutsintosthe back of his hand until he bleeds.3 Harry quickly comes to hate Professor Umbridge. Also, because he still feels Voldemort is inside him, Harry struggles4 with his own dark side all year. It is not easy, but it is part of growing up. To beat5 Voldemort for good, Harry must first learn how to control himself. |
哈利·波特的最后考试:巫师鉴定 |
除了私人问题之外,哈利还得参加一项艰难的考试。6月份的时候,哈利全班都要参加霍格沃茨最重要的一项考试──巫师鉴定考。哈利和他的同学们只能没日没夜地念书。此外,魔法部不希望大家知道伏地魔已经回来的消息,于是他们派了一个可怕的女人──安布丽奇教授,来阻止哈利把这个秘密泄露出去。 安布丽奇教授以折磨哈利为乐。她要哈利用魔法笔写“我不说谎”。每当他下笔写字,写下的字都会刻在他的手背上,直到他鲜血直流。 不久哈利就深深痛恨安布丽奇教授。同时,因为他觉得伏地魔就在他体内,他一整年都得跟自己黑暗的一面搏斗。虽然很不容易,但这是成长的必经历程。若想要永远打败伏地魔,哈利必须先学会自律。 1.furthermore adv. also而且 2.horrible adj. scary可怕的 3.bleed v. to lose blood流血 4.struggle v. to try to beat挣扎 5.beat v. to win against打败 |
