But at that precise moment a screech owl swooped in through the kitchen window.

就在这个时候，一只长耳猫头鹰忽地从窗户飞进了厨房。

A handsome screech owl was standing on the windowsill, gazing into the room at Ron.

一只漂亮的长耳猫头鹰站在窗台上，瞪大眼睛看着屋里的罗恩。

A screech owl arrived for Hermione, carrying her morning copy of the Daily Prophet as usual.

一只尖叫猫头鹰像往常一样给赫敏送来了早晨的《预言家日报》。

I hurried by and a screech owl shrilled its wavering lament in the hammock.

我匆匆经过， 一只鸣叫的猫头鹰在吊床上发出颤抖的哀鸣。

You know I'm never taking the stage with that screech owl.

你知道我是绝不会带那乌鸦嗓上台的。

'Harry! ' said Hermione breathlessly, plunging her hands into the feathery mass and pulling out a screech owl bearing a long, cylindrical package.

哈利，赫敏激动地说，把手伸进羽毛堆里，抓出了一只带着个长筒形包裹的长耳猫头鹰。

As the owls flooded into the Great Hall as usual, everyone's attention was caught at once by a long, thin package carried by six large screech owls.

当猫头鹰们像往常一样拥进大餐厅时，每个人的注意力都被由六只长耳猫头鹰驮着的细长包裹吸引住了。哈利和别人一样渴望知道这个包裹里是什么。

Pigwidgeon was much too small to carry an entire ham up to the mountain by himself, so Harry enlisted the help of two school screech owls as well.

小猪个头太小了，独自驮不动一整块火腿，哈利便又选了两只学校的长耳猫头鹰来帮忙。

A screech owl arrived for Hermione, carrying her morning copy of the Daily Prophet as usual. She unfolded the paper, glanced at the front page, and spat out a mouthful of pumpkin juice all over it.

一只尖叫猫头鹰像往常一样给赫敏送来了早晨的《预言家日报》。她打开报纸，扫了一眼头版，登时把一口南瓜汁全喷在报纸上。

But she broke off; the morning post was arriving and, as usual, the Daily Prophet was soaring towards her in the beak of a screech owl, which landed perilously close to the sugar bowl and held out a leg.

可是她突然停住了话头。早晨的邮件来了，像平常一样，一只长耳猫头鹰叼着《预言家日报》朝她飞来，看着很危险地落在糖碗旁边，伸出了一条腿。
