As they approached it, they saw to their surprise a large crowd jostling outside the doors, trying to get in.
他们惊讶地发现店门外挤了一大群人，都想进去。

The reason for this was proclaimed by a large banner stretched across the upper windows:
楼上拉出了一条大横幅：

A harassed-looking wizard stood at the door, saying, "Calmly, please, ladies. . . . Don't push, there . . . mind the books, now. . . ."
一位面色疲惫的男巫站在门口说：“女士们，安静……不要拥挤……当心图书……”

A long line wound right to the back of the shop, where Gilderoy Lockhart was signing his books.
弯弯曲曲的队伍从门口一直排到书店后面，吉德罗洛哈特就在那里签名售书。

They each grabbed a copy of The Standard Book of Spells, Grade 2 and sneaked up the line to where the rest of the Weasleys were standing with Mr. and Mrs. Granger.
他们每人抓了一本《与女鬼决裂》，偷偷跑到韦斯莱一家和格兰杰夫妇排队的地方。

She sounded breathless and kept patting her hair. "We'll be able to see him in a minute. . . ."
她呼吸急促，不停地拍着头发。“我们一会儿就能见到他了……”

Gilderoy Lockhart came slowly into view, seated at a table surrounded by large pictures of his own face,
渐渐地，他们望见吉德罗洛哈特了。他坐在桌子后面，被他自己的大幅照片包围着，

The real Lockhart was wearing robes of forget-me-not blue that exactly matched his eyes; his pointed wizard's hat was set at a jaunty angle on his wavy hair.
真正的洛哈特穿着件跟勿忘我花一样蓝色的长袍，与他的蓝眼睛正好相配。尖顶巫师帽俏皮地歪戴在一头鬈发上。
