It is [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry|the school's]] second week of classes, and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Harry Potter|Harry]] is dismayed that flying lessons are also shared with [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Slytherin House|Slytherin House]]. Because he has not yet learned to fly, Harry knows he will be ridiculed by [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Draco Malfoy|Draco Malfoy]], who is as well-loved by Harry as [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Dudley Dursley|cousin Dudley]].
[[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Neville Longbottom|Neville's]] grandmother has sent him a [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Remembrall|Remembrall]], a device to help him remember things. Draco attempts to steal it during breakfast, but [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Minerva McGonagall|Professor McGonagall's]] arrival interrupts him. At the flying lesson, Neville falls off his [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Brooms|broom]], injuring himself. The instructor, [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Rolanda Hooch|Madam Hooch]], takes him to the hospital wing, ordering everyone else to remain on the ground. Spotting Neville's dropped Remembrall, Draco grabs it and takes off on his broom to place it in a tree for Neville to fetch later. Harry flies after him, discovering that
Later, surprised that Harry has avoided being expelled, Draco challenges him to a Wizard's Duel in the trophy room at midnight. Harry accepts, and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Ron Weasley|Ron]] volunteers to be his second. As Harry and Ron sneak out later that night, circumstance adds Neville and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Hermione Granger|Hermione]] to the party, though both Harry and Ron are unhappy that they are tagging along. Hermione, particularly, is unwelcome, as she

Dòng 15:
Imagine Harry's joy to discover that flying on a broomstick is something magical that he can do, not only naturally and well, but better than anyone else in the class. Compound this with the discovery that his father was also a talented flier, that he no longer has to attend flying classes with the Slytherins, that the school will be providing him with a top-quality broom for Quidditch matches—by dinner time, Harry could likely fly from sheer joy, without a broom.
Harry is also showing a growing independence by his tendency to break rules, almost from his first day at Hogwarts, as demonstrated by his ignoring Madam Hooch's command at the flying lesson that all students remain on the ground during her brief absence. Harry also sneaks out after curfew to meet Draco for their duel. This rule-breaking attitude may partially stem from his disdain for the Dursleys, who have constantly abused their authority to torment and unfairly punish Harry when he does nothing wrong, while Dudley is continually spoiled, despite his abysmal, bullying behavior. And even though Harry's nature is showing a certain disregard for authority, it is never motivated by rebellion or to engage in mischief; he instead feels justified if he believes his actions serve some noble purpose, such as retrieving Neville's Remembrall or upholding his honor by dueling Draco
The wizards' duel, which may appear somewhat arbitrary, is a natural progression and says much about Harry's, Ron's, and Draco's characters; Draco has been humiliated, and therefore must have his revenge. And for Draco, betraying Harry (and, peripherally, Ron) to Filch would be as satisfying as defeating him, if he could, in a duel
This scene also provides further evidence that there is a mystery for Harry to investigate. Harry already suspects that the grubby little package Hagrid brought back to Hogwarts is tied to the break-in at Gringotts.
== Questions ==
Dòng 45:
The trap door under the three-headed dog is one among Hogwarts' many secrets foreshadowed in the previous chapter. The guarded hatch poses a huge question that needs to be answered: "What is under the trap door?" If the dog is guarding Hagrid's parcel, then one must question what else might lie beneath the the castle's floors. Hogwarts holds many secrets for Harry to discover in this and also later books. Like the castle's shifting staircases, Harry must navigate a dangerous and ever-changing path before finding the answers.
The reader should remember that, at this point, Harry has no need to worry about what is in the parcel, or how it is guarded. The fact that it is likely under the trap door that the dog is guarding is an interesting bit of information, but of no use to Harry. However, over the course of this year, Harry's curiosity will drive him to try and find out exactly what was in the parcel, and he will determine that it is the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Philosopher's Stone|Philosopher's Stone]] of the book title. At the same time, Harry will gradually become aware that others are seeking the Stone, either for their own benefit or in the hopes of re-animating [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Lord Voldemort|Voldemort]], and will attempt to warn the authorities of his worries. The authorities, notably Professor McGonagall, will disregard his warnings, and Harry will conclude that he alone can save the Stone. It is arguable whether he has reached the correct conclusion; however, in the end he will act and will successfully keep the Stone safe.
Although Harry's fears that his difficult Muggle upbringing has permanently damaged his magical abilities are generally groundless, this belief is not entirely invalid. It will be seen that whatever their backgrounds, pure-blood, half-blood, or Muggle-born, young Witches and Wizards do have varying talents and levels of proficiencies, and that these can be affected by their respective histories. Neville Longbottom is particularly weak in magic, but rather than lacking talent, he has been emotionally crippled by events in his life that are as traumatic (and perhaps even more so) as what Harry has experienced, and that ties the two boys together. Harry is probably experiencing some early difficulties for similar reasons, as well as being new to magic, though he will quickly overcome these obstacles and catch up to his classmates; Neville, who is likely impaired by memory charms that his well-meaning family may have employed to help him forget the tragic circumstances involving his parents, will take longer to progress.▼

Hermione backs down from her threat to report Harry and Ron, and she will continue to overlook their constant rule-breaking in future books, even after she is appointed as a Gryffindor [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Prefects|prefect]]. The only time she actually reports their activities to a teacher is in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Prisoner of Azkaban/Chapter 11|''Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban'']]. In that instance, she reports Harry to Professor McGonagall, not because he broke any rules, but only because she was legitimately concerned for Harry's safety. Both Harry and Ron react in anger, however, refusing to speak to her for months, deeply hurting Hermione, and nearly ending their friendship permanently.▼
