雙語(yǔ)新聞：《哈利波特》回歸 羅琳萬(wàn)圣節(jié)發(fā)布番外篇

JK Rowling is set to publish a special Harry Potter story on her website as a Halloween surprise for fans.

JK羅琳表示，她將于萬(wàn)圣節(jié)當(dāng)天在網(wǎng)站上發(fā)布哈利波特系列的一篇短篇小說(shuō)，作為給粉絲們的萬(wàn)圣節(jié)驚喜。

The original tale will focus on cruel Hogwarts professor Dolores Umbridge, the witch who first appeared in Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix as the Minister for Magic's Senior Undersecretary, played by Imelda Staunton in the films.

這篇小說(shuō)將筆觸集中在討人厭的多洛雷斯·烏姆里奇教授身上。她第一次出現(xiàn)是在《哈利波特與鳳凰令》中擔(dān)任魔法部的高級(jí)官員，在電影中由艾美達(dá)·斯丹頓飾演。

Umbridge memorably ordered young wizard Harry to use a Blood Quill and scar himself with the phrase, "I must not tell lies".

烏姆里奇曾用血液羽毛筆在哈利波特手上刻下“我不能撒謊”。

"Umbridge is not only one of the most malicious Potter characters, she is the only person other than Lord Voldemort to leave a permanent physical scar," reads a statement on Pottermore.

Pottermore網(wǎng)站上稱(chēng)，“烏姆里奇不僅是最厭惡哈利波特的人物之一，還是除伏地魔之外唯一在哈利波特身上留下永久疤痕的人。”

The website dropped a few hints for fans, promising a "rich, 1700-word back story about Umbridge's life, filled with many new details, as well as Rowling's revealing first-person thoughts and reflections about the character".

網(wǎng)站上還給了粉絲一些提示：“這篇短篇小說(shuō)細(xì)節(jié)的東西很多，羅琳會(huì)以第一人稱(chēng)角度談到多洛雷斯·烏姆里奇的背景故事，也會(huì)有羅琳對(duì)角色的想法。”

The story is expected to appear online on Friday 31 October.

這篇短篇小說(shuō)將于本周五10月31日上傳到網(wǎng)上。

Rowling released another Harry Potter story online last July, which saw a 33-year-old, greying Harry reunite with Ron Weasley, Hermione Grainger, Luna Lovegood and Neville Longbottom for the final of the Quidditch World Cup. It attracted so much traffic that Pottermore temporarily crashed.

羅琳在去年7月份的時(shí)候也在網(wǎng)上發(fā)布了一篇哈利波特的故事，其中33歲的、已有銀發(fā)的哈里·波特與羅恩、赫敏、盧娜和隆巴頓等相聚在魁地奇世界杯的決賽上。當(dāng)時(shí)因?yàn)樵L(fǎng)問(wèn)量過(guò)大，一度造成了Pottermore網(wǎng)站的暫時(shí)癱瘓。

Earlier this week, Rowling was forced to debunk rumours that she has recently finished a romantic novel.
近期有謠言稱(chēng)羅琳已完成了一部愛(ài)情小說(shuō)，本周初，羅琳對(duì)此作出了澄清。

Instead, Rowling is "halfway through" writing another novel, which is not a romance and believed to be a follow-up to 2011's The Casual Vacancy.
不過(guò)，羅琳確實(shí)有一部小說(shuō)已經(jīng)完成了一半，但不是愛(ài)情小說(shuō)，而是其創(chuàng)作于2011年的《偶發(fā)空缺》的續(xù)集。
