Perhaps it had something to do with living in a dark cupboard, but Harry had always been small and skinny for his age. He looked even smaller and skinnier than he really was because all he had to wear were old clothes of Dudley's, and Dudley was about four times bigger than he was. Harry had a thin face, knobbly knees, black hair, and bright green eyes. He wore round glasses held together with a lot of Scotch tape because of all the times Dudley had punched him on the nose. The only thing Harry liked about his own appearance was a very thin scar on his forehead that was shaped like a bolt of lightning.
可能跟長期住在黑黑的柜子裡有關係,哈利就他這樣年紀的小孩來說,實在是又小又瘦。他經常穿達力的舊衣服,這使他看上之顯得更小更瘦——要知道達力要比他大四倍啊。哈利長著一張瘦瘦的疙瘩臉,黑黑的頭髮,亮綠色的眼睛。他的那幅圓眼鏡是用很多膠布粘在一塊的,因為達力總是喜歡打他的鼻子。哈利對自己長相最滿意的地方要算前額上那道閃電形狀的疤痕了。
has something to do with 固定搭配,意為 與……有關,例:Perhaps this chart has something to do with it? 也許這張圖表能告訴我們一些相關的信息?
skinny 此處意為 瘦骨嶙峋的;還有一個含義是 緊身的;例:skinny jeans 緊身牛仔褲 ; 窄腳褲,Skinny Scarf 窄絲巾 ; 長條絲巾。
數字 + times + 形容詞比較級 + than 意為 XX 是 XX 的幾倍(形容詞) ,例:His house is three times bigger than mine. 他的房子比我的房子大三倍。
