where the Halloween decorations put Hermione out of their minds.

A thousand live bats fluttered from the walls and ceiling while a thousand more swooped over the tables in low black clouds,
一千只蝙蝠在墙壁和天花板上扑棱棱地飞翔，另外还有一千只像一团团低矮的乌云，
making the candles in the pumpkins stutter.

his turban askew and terror on his face.

Troll -- in the dungeons -- thought you ought to know.
巨怪……在地下教室里……以为你应该知道的。
He then sank to the floor in a dead faint.
说完，他一头栽到在地板上，昏死了过去。
There was an uproar. It took several purple firecrackers exploding from the end of Professor Dumbledore's wand to bring silence.
餐厅里顿时乱成一团。邓布利多教授不得不使他的魔杖头上发出几次刺耳的烟火爆炸声，大家才安静下来。
Prefects,he rumbled, lead your Houses back to the dormitories immediately!
级长，他声音低沉地说，立刻把你们学院的学生领到宿舍去！
