我们在看一个本课出现的词：

a voice like a foghorn:
informal a very loud unpleasant voice 大喇叭似的声音

Hagrid suddenly pulled out a very dirty, spotted handkerchief and blew his nose with a sound like a foghorn.

三、旧词重现：

一些特别熟的词就简单列：emerald, blow up, roar, reckon, spotted

grunt:

‘Where was I?’ said Hagrid, but at that moment, Uncle Vernon, still ashen-faced but looking very angry, moved into the firelight.
‘He’s not going,’ he said.
Hagrid grunted.
I’d like ter see a great Muggle like you stop him,’ he said.

[intransitive, transitive] to make short sounds or say a few words in a rough voice, when you do not want to talk 〔在不愿意讲话时〕发出哼声；嘟哝着说

出现了好多，我也记得不清楚，但是人家出现好几次再不好好记就说不过去了，上次出现时是Day2，当时给大家讲解是make a short low sound，今天看看详细解释，原来这个词是不愿讲话的时候说话，恍然大悟！让我想起这词上次出现是那个决定弗农姨夫收养哈利命运的一天当时神思恍惚的他不想说话又得和被他撞到的人说对不起时用的啊，翻书后发现果然如此：

’Sorry,’ he grunted, as the tiny old man stumbled and almost fell.

stamp out

…swore we’d stamp it out of him! Wizard, indeed!

a) to prevent something bad from continuing 消除；杜绝
We aim to stamp out poverty in our lifetimes.

b) to stop a fire from burning by stepping hard on the flames 踩灭〔火〕
c) to make a shape or object by pressing hard on something using a machine or tool 〔用机器或工具〕冲压制成

stamp out

gulp
之前出现的是名词义，今天是动词

大家自己顺路复习一下我们学过的几个狼吞虎咽吧～

shudder

第一天课文出现过shudder to think（一想到……就颤抖），当时没特意讲。哈波单词真是复现率超高。

blow your nose
见“其他单词”第9条例句

四、魔法词典：

HOGWARTS SCHOOL OF WITCHCRAFT AND WIZARDRY 霍格沃茨魔法学校
curse 诅咒，咒语

五、喜欢的句子：

Hagrid rolled up the note, gave it to the owl, which clamped it in its beak, went to the door and threw the owl out into the storm.

哈利波特每句话都好生动，于是我默默搜了这张图，这样是不是妈妈再也不用担心我想表达一个意思的时候不知咋说～

throw the bird out into the sky

clamp 夹紧，固定
beak 鸟嘴

birds of prey
