前情回顧
生日宴會結(jié)束了浇坐，比爾博想講兩句話。
paragraph 01
But Bilbo had not finished. Seizing a horn from a youngster near by, he blew three loud hoots. The noise subsided. "I shall not keep you long," he cried. Cheers from all the assembly. 'I have called you all together for a Purpose.'' Something in the way that he said this made an impression. There was almost silence, and one or two of the Tooks pricked up their ears.
'Indeed, for Three Purposes! First of all, to tell you that I am immensely fond of you all, and that eleventy-one years is too short a time to live among such excellent and admirable hobbits.' ' Tremendous outburst of approval.

但是比爾博還沒說完觉渴。他從旁邊的年輕人手里搶來了號角徽惋，吹了三聲響案淋，全場噤聲险绘。“我不會耽擱大家太久的宦棺，” 他叫喊起來瓣距。 大家歡呼起來代咸〉竿瑁“我把大家聚集起來是有原因的。” 他說這話的方式非常特殊奋岁，大家都安靜下來，一兩個(gè)圖克族的人甚至豎起了耳朵。
“事實(shí)上管搪，有三個(gè)原因。首先澡为，我想告訴大家我非常喜歡你們漂坏，和你們這些美好而又令人傾佩的霍比特人呆在一起，一百一十一年的時(shí)間都嫌太少拒啰⊙币铮” 大家發(fā)出了贊同的歡呼。

但比爾博并沒有說話谋旦。他從附近的一名年輕人手中搶來一把號角剩失，使勁的吹了三聲。眾人的喧鬧這才安靜下來册着∷┕拢“我不會耽擱各位太久的時(shí)間，”他大喊甲捏。所有的聽眾都情不自禁的歡呼演熟。“我把你們都找來是有目的的摊鸡≌烂剑”他說“目的”這兩個(gè)字的口氣十分特殊，現(xiàn)場一時(shí)間陷入死寂免猾，還有一兩個(gè)圖克家的人緊張的豎直了耳朵是辕。
“沒錯(cuò)，有三個(gè)目的猎提！第一获三，是告訴你們我非常的喜歡你們旁蔼，和你們這些好人一起度過的一百一十一年實(shí)在太精彩，也太短暫了疙教」琢模”眾人響起如雷的掌聲。
paragraph 02
' I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve. ' This was unexpected and rather difficult. There was some scattered clapping, but most of them were trying to work it out and see if it came to a compliment.
'Secondly, to celebrate my birthday. ' Cheers again. 'I should say: OUR birthday. For it is, of course, also the birthday of my heir and nephew, Frodo. He comes of age and into his inheritance today. ' Some perfunctory clapping by the elders; and some loud shouts of 'Frodo! Frodo! Jolly old Frodo,' from the juniors. The Sackville-Bagginses scowled, and wondered what was meant by 'coming into his inheritance.'' Together we score one hundred and forty-four. Your numbers were chosen to fit this remarkable total: One Gross, if I may use the expression. ' No cheers. This was ridiculous. Many of his guests, and especially the Sackville-Bagginses, were insulted, feeling sure they had only been asked to fill up the required number, like goods in a package. 'One Gross, indeed! Vulgar expression.'

" 你們中的很多人值得我去交往贞谓，但我卻沒有機(jī)會認(rèn)識限佩。你們中有很多人值得去深交，但我們的關(guān)系卻沒有深入裸弦。"這句話出乎意料祟同，而且也有些費(fèi)神。下面只有一些零星的掌聲理疙，大多數(shù)人仍然在思考這句話到底是褒是貶晕城。

“你們其中有許多人是我想要認(rèn)識岭佳，卻沒有機(jī)會深交的；另外則有許多人值得我投入更深的感情萧锉∩核妫”這段話大出眾人意料之外，由于太過難懂柿隙，四下只傳來零星的掌聲叶洞。眾人的小腦袋都在拼命轉(zhuǎn)動著，希望能夠搞懂這段話是褒是貶优俘。

“我們兩人的歲數(shù)加起來一共一百四十四魂莫。我邀請的賓客人數(shù)也正是為了符合這神秘的數(shù)字：請容我使用十二打這個(gè)說法还蹲。”沒有人歡呼耙考。這太可笑了谜喊。許多客人，特別是塞克維爾一家人都覺得受到了羞辱倦始。他們沒想到自己竟然是被邀請來充數(shù)的斗遏，好像用來塞箱子的填充物一樣￠购牛“是唷最易，十二打怒坯！還真是會選字哪！”
paragraph 03
'It is also, if I may be allowed to refer to ancient history, the anniversary of my arrival by barrel at Esgaroth on the Long Lake; though the fact that it was my birthday slipped my memory on that occasion. I was only fifty-one then, and birthdays did not seem so important. The banquet was very splendid, however, though I had a bad cold at the time, I remember, and could only say 'thag you very buch'. I now repeat it more correctly: Thank you very much for coming to my little party. ' Obstinate silence. They all feared that a song or some poetry was now imminent; and they were getting bored. Why couldn't he stop talking and let them drink his health? But Bilbo did not sing or recite. He paused for a moment.

'Thirdly and finally, he said, I wish to make an ANNOUNCEMENT. He spoke
this last word so loudly and suddenly that everyone sat up who still could. I regret to announce that - though, as I said, eleventy-one years is far too short a time to spend among you - this is the END. I am going. I am leaving NOW. GOOD-BYE!
