原文：

"Yes, yes, it's all very sad, but get a grip on yourself, Hagrid, or we'll be found," Professor McGonagall whispered, patting Hagrid gingerly on the arm as Dumbledore stepped over the low garden wall and walked to the front door. He laid Harry gently on the doorstep, took a letter out of his cloak, tucked it inside Harry's blankets, and then came back to the other two. For a full minute the three of them stood and looked at the little bundle; Hagrid's shoulders shook, Professor McGonagall blinked furiously, and the twinkling light that usually shone from Dumbledore's eyes seemed to have gone out.

"Well," said Dumbledore finally, "that's that. We've no business staying here. We may as well go and join the celebrations."

"Yeah," said Hagrid in a very muffled voice, "I'll be takin' Sirius his bike back. G'night, Professor McGonagall — Professor Dumbledore, sir."

Wiping his streaming eyes on his jacket sleeve, Hagrid swung himself onto the motorcycle and kicked the engine into life; with a roar it rose into the air and off into the night.

"I shall see you soon, I expect, Professor McGonagall," said Dumbledore, nodding to her. Professor McGonagall blew her nose in reply.  

Dumbledore turned and walked back down the street. On the corner he stopped and took out the silver Put-Outer. He clicked it once, and twelve balls of light sped back to their street lamps so that Privet Drive glowed suddenly orange and he could make out a tabby cat slinking around the corner at the other end of the street. He could just see the bundle of blankets on the step of number four.  

"Good luck, Harry," he murmured. He turned on his heel and with a swish of his cloak, he was gone.  

A breeze ruffled the neat hedges of Privet Drive, which lay silent and tidy under the inky sky, the very last place you would expect astonishing things to happen. Harry Potter rolled over inside his blankets without waking up. One small hand closed on the letter beside him and he slept on, not knowing he was special, not knowing he was famous, not knowing he would be woken in a few hours' time by Mrs. Dursley's scream as she opened the front door to put out the milk bottles, nor that he would spend the next few weeks being prodded and pinched by his cousin Dudley… He couldn't know that at this very moment, people meeting in secret all over the country were holding up their glasses and saying in hushed voices: "To Harry Potter — the boy who lived!"

译文：

“是啊，是啊，是令人难过，可你得把握住自己，不然我们会被发现的。”麦格教授小声说，轻轻拍了一下海格的臂膀。这时邓布利多正跨过花园低矮的院墙，朝大门走去。他轻轻把哈利放到大门口的台阶上，从斗篷里掏出一封信，塞到哈利的毛毯里，然后回到另外两个人身边。他们三人站在那里对小小的毯子注视了足有一分钟。海格的肩膀在抖动，麦格教授拼命眨眼，邓布利多一向闪光的眼睛也暗淡无光了。

“好了，”邓布利多终于说，“到此结束了。我们没有必要继续待在这里。咱们还是去参加庆祝会吧。”

“是啊，”海格咕哝说，“我得去把车还给小天狼星。晚安，麦格教授——晚安，邓布利多教授。”

海格用外衣衣袖揩了揩流泪的眼睛，跨上摩托，踩着了发动机，随着一声吼叫，摩托车腾空而起，消失在夜色里。

“希望很快和您见面，麦格教授。”邓布利多朝麦格教授点头说。她擤了擤鼻子作为回答。

邓布利多转身来到街上。他在街角上掏出银制熄灯器，咔哒弹了一下，只见十二个火球又回到各自的路灯上，女贞路顿时映照出一片橙黄，他看见一只花斑猫正悄悄从街那头的拐角溜掉了。他恰好可以看见4号台阶上放着的那个用毯子裹着的小包。

“祝你好运，哈利。”他喃喃地说，噔地厢脚跟一转身，只听斗篷飕的一声，他已经消失得无影无踪了。

微风拂动着女贞路两旁整洁的树篱，街道在漆黑的天空下寂静无声，一尘不染，谁也不会想到这里会发生骇人听闻的事情。哈利·波特在毯子包里翻了个身，但他并没有醒。他的一只小手正好放在那封信旁边。他还继续沉睡，一点不知道他很特殊，不知道他名气很大，不知道再过几小时，等德思礼太太开大门放奶瓶时，他会被她的尖叫声吵醒；更不会知道，在未来的几个星期，他表哥达力会对他连捅带戳，连掐带拧……他也不可能知道，就在此刻，全国人都在秘密聚会。人们高举酒杯悄声说：“祝福大难不死的孩子——哈利·波特!”

主要知识点：

1.   get a grip on oneself：

“get a grip on sth”表示的是“紧紧抓住 / 掌握某物”，比如说：
He is just beginning to get a grip on the subject.（他刚刚开始了解这门课。）
而文中的“get a grip on oneself”便是指“控制自己（的情绪）”了。比如说：
He keeps running around in circles, He better simmer down and get a grip on himself.（他总是做些徒劳无功的事，他需要冷静下来控制自己的冲动。） 

2.   swing oneself：

“swing”表示“move sb/oneself from one place to another by gripping sth and leaping（使某人/自己抓住某物纵身一跃）”。比如说：
He swung himself (up) into the saddle.（他纵身跨上马鞍。）
在这里顺便和大家讨论一下“摇晃”的英语，我们通常会用到“sway”以及“swing”两个词。它们之间是有区别的：
“sway”多指物体的下端固定，上端“摇动”。比如说：
The sailboat swayed on the stormy sea.（帆船在惊涛骇浪的大海中摇晃。）
“swing”多指物体的上端固定，下端“摆动”。比如说：
The pendulum swings.（钟摆摆动。）

3. make out:

这个词组既可以接名词也可以接句子，分别以“make sth out”和“make out that / how / when”的形式表现出来。
表达的是“勉强听出 / 看出 / 辨认出”的意思。比如说：
1）I can scarcely make out his writing.（我几乎辨认不出他的笔迹。）
2）We couldn't make out what they were talking about.（我们听不清楚他们在谈论什么。）

4. roll over:

这个词组表示“to turn your body round once so that you are lying in a different position（翻身）”，比如说：
Ben rolled over and kissed her.（本翻过身来吻了吻她）
或者说，当我们用“roll sth / sb over”的时候，就是表示“to turn someone's body over on the ground（把某人 / 某物翻身）”，比如说：
The guards rolled him over onto his front.（卫兵们把他翻过身来脸冲下。）
