'As to our second new appointment,' Dumbledore continued, as the lukewarm applause for Professor Lupin died away,
“至于我们任命的第二位教师，”给卢平教授的不太热情的掌声消失后，邓布利多继续说，
'well, I am sorry to tell you that Professor Kettleburn,
“唔，我遗憾地告诉你们，
our Care of Magical Creatures teacher, retired at the end of last year in order to enjoy more time with his remaining limbs.
我们的保护神奇生物课的教师凯特尔伯恩教授去年年底退休了，以便有更多时间和他剩下的小淘气在一起。
However, I am delighted to say that his place will be filled by none other than Rubeus Hagrid,
然而，我高兴地说，不是别人，而是鲁伯海格来填补他的空缺，
who has agreed to take on this teaching job in addition to his gamekeeping duties.'
海格已经同意在担任狩猎场看守之外，兼任教师之职。”
Harry, Ron and Hermione stared at each other, stunned.
哈利、罗恩和赫敏彼此大眼看小眼，呆住了，
Then they joined in with the applause, which was tumultuous at the Gryffindor table in particular.
然后他们加入了鼓掌，格兰芬多桌子上的掌声格外热烈。
Harry leant forward to see Hagrid, who was ruby red in the face and staring down at his enormous hands,
哈利俯身向前去看海格，只见他满脸通红，瞪眼看着他那双大手，
his wide grin hidden in the tangle of his black beard.
他的微笑隐藏在他乱糟糟的黑胡子里。
'We should've known!' Ron roared, pounding the table.
“我们早就应该知道的！”罗恩吼道，捶着桌子，
'Who else would have set us a biting book?'
“别人谁会让我们去弄一本会咬人的书？”
Harry, Ron and Hermione were the last to stop clapping, and as Professor Dumbledore started speaking again,
哈利、罗恩和赫敏是最后停止拍手的。当邓布利多教授又开始说话的时候，
they saw that Hagrid was wiping his eyes on the tablecloth.
他们看到海格在用桌布擦眼睛。
'Well, I think that's everything of importance,' said Dumbledore. 'Let the feast begin!'
“好吧，我想重要的事已经说完了，”邓布利多说，“开始用餐吧。”
