Ancient and shriveled, many people said he hadn't noticed he was dead.
他年纪非常老了，皮肉皱缩得很厉害，许多人都说他并没有留意自己已经死了。
He had simply got up to teach one day and left his body behind him in an armchair in front of the staffroom fire; his routine had not varied in the slightest since.

Professor Binns opened his notes and began to read in a flat drone like an old vacuum cleaner until nearly everyone in the class was in a deep stupor,

He had been speaking for half an hour when something happened that had never happened before. Hermione put up her hand.
