原文赏析Harry was rather quiet as he ate the ice cream Hagrid had bought him (chocolate and raspberry with chopped nuts).
当哈利吃着海格买给他的冰淇淋时，显得非常安静。

“What's up?” said Hagrid.
"你怎么了？"海格问。

“Nothing,” Harry lied. They stopped to buy parchment and quills. Harry cheered up a bit when he found a bottle of ink that changed color as you wrote. When they had left the shop, he said, “Hagrid, what's Quidditch?”
"没什么，"哈利撒了一个谎，他们停下来去买羊皮纸和羽毛笔。哈利高兴了起来，因为他找到了一瓶神奇的墨水，墨水的颜色随着你写的字而不断变换着颜色。当他们离开这家店的时候，他问道，"海格，什么是魁地奇？"

“Blimey, Harry, I keep forgettin' how little yeh know — not knowin' about Quidditch!”
"啊呀，哈利，我一直都忘了你对魁地奇了解得多么少——或者根本不知道。"

“Don't make me feel worse,” said Harry. He told Hagrid about the pale boy in Madam Malkin's.
"别让我觉得更不好受。"哈利说着，便把他在马金夫人店里遇到那男孩的事说了一遍。

“— and he said people from Muggle families shouldn't even be allowed in—”
"他还说来自麻瓜家族的人甚至不允许进入——"

“Yer not from a Muggle family. If he'd known who yeh were — he's grown up knowin' yer name if his parents are wizardin' folk. You saw what everyone in the Leaky Cauldron was like when they saw yeh. Anyway, what does he know about it, some o' the best I ever saw were the only ones with magic in ‘em in a long line o' Muggles — look at yer mum! Look what she had fer a sister!”
"你不是来自麻瓜家族的，如果他知道你是谁的话——如果他父母是巫师的话，他应该早就听说过你的大名了——你在'破釜'酒吧都见到他们是如何待你的了，他懂什么呀，我所见到的最好的巫师往往都是拥有魔法但深藏不露的，麻瓜——看看你妈妈多厉害！再看看你那佩妮姨妈多差劲。"

“So what is Quidditch?”
"那什么是魁地奇？"

“It's our sport. Wizard sport. It's like — like soccer in the Muggle world — everyone follows Quidditch — played up in the air on broomsticks and there's four balls — sorta hard ter explain the rules.”

　　"我们的一种运动，魔法运动，它就像——就像麻瓜世界的足球运动一样——每个人都喜欢魁地奇——骑着扫帚在空气里玩耍，一共有四个球——很难去解释那些规则。"

“And what are Slytherin and Hufflepuff?”
"那斯莱特林和赫夫帕夫又是什么？"

“School houses. There's four. Everyone says Hufflepuff are a lot o' duffers, but—”
"都是学校里的学院，一共有四座，每个人都说住在赫夫帕夫里的都是一群笨蛋，但是——"

“I bet I'm in Hufflepuff,” said Harry gloomily.
"我打赌我会分在赫夫帕夫。"哈利十分沮丧地说。

“Better Hufflepuff than Slytherin,” said Hagrid darkly. “There's not a single witch or wizard who went bad who wasn't in Slytherin. You-Know-Who was one.”
"其实赫夫帕夫比斯莱特林要好。"海格有点难过，"很多斯莱特林的巫师变坏了，'神秘人'就是其中一个。"

“Vol-, sorry — You-Know-Who was at Hogwarts?”
"伏——抱歉，'神秘人'也在霍格沃茨学习过？"

“Years an' years ago,” said Hagrid.
"那是很多年以前的事了。"海格说道。

重点讲解Harry was rather quiet as he ate the ice cream

as作连词的用法:

1. 作"当……的时候",引导时间状语从句。注意与when、 while的用法区别。
① when作"当……的时候"解,可以指较短的(一点)时间,也可指一段时间。如:
When he was at college, he could speak several foreign languages.
When the clock struck twelve, all the lights in the street went out.
② while常表示一段较长的时间或一个过程,强调主句谓语动词与从句谓语动词同时发生。如:
Work while you work. Play while you play.
③ 但属下列情形时,只用as, 而不用when或while。
A) 用于表示同一个人的两种动作交替进行,指"一边……,一边……"。如:
The girl dances as she sings on the stage.
He looked behind from time to time as he went forward.
B)表示两个同步发展的动作或行为,译为"随着……"。如:
As time went on / by, she became more and more worried.
As children get older, they become more and more interested in the things around them.
C)表示两个短促行为或事件几乎同时发生。如:
I thought of it just as you opened your mouth.
Just as the flying worm hit her face, she gave a loud cry.
D) 后接名词表示某一年龄段时,用as。如:
As a young man, he was active in sports.

2. as=since, 作"既然"、"由于"解,引导原因状语从句,常用来表示已为人们所知或显而易见的原因或理由。如:
As / Since you''''re not feeling well, you may stay at home.
As he wasn''''t ready in time, we went without him.

3. as=in the way that, 作"像"、"按照……的方式"解,引导方式状语从句。如:
He speaks English as Americans do.

4. 用于as...as...或not so/ as...as...中,前一个as是副词,后一个as是连词,引导比较状语从句。如:
They helped the old man as often as possible.
I don''''t speak English so/ as well as he does.

5. 作"虽然"、"尽管"解,引导让步状语从句。常用倒装语序,即adj. /adv. / n.+as +主语+谓语+主句。如:
Tired as they were, they walked on.
Child as he is, he knows a lot. (child前不用冠词)

They stopped to buy parchment and quills.

stop 用法

stop doing sth是“停止做某事”，doing是stop 的宾语，是要停止的动作，
stop to do sth 是“停下来开始做某事”，to do是stop的状语，表示目的，是要开始做的事情，例如：

1. The two girls stopped talking when they saw me.
那两个女孩一见到我就停止了讲话。

2. The two girls stopped to talk to me when they saw me.
这两个女孩一看到我就停下来和我讲我。
