Dòng 19:
It is interesting to note that Tom Riddle, Ron, and Harry all received Special Awards for Services to the School for closing the Chamber of Secrets. Fifty years on, other students may be wondering what Ronald Weasley did to merit this award. It is unlikely that Harry's role will be questioned: after all, he is the ''famous'' Harry Potter.
 
A guiding principle in the series is voiced by Dumbledore: "It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities." Although another character, such as [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Percy Weasley|Percy Weasley]], speaking those words would seem overly sententious, Dumbledore can utter this without pontificating, partially, perhaps, because he is considered eccentric. It is perhaps worthwhile to review just what choices Harry has been given, and which decisions he made. Harry has seldom taken the easy path, often choosing the more difficult route because he believed it was right. It will be instructive to see if Harry maintains this coursehabit.
 
This particular instance is interesting in another direction. Throughout this book, we have seen Harry's increasing doubt that he was meant to be sorted into Gryffindor House. When he meets Tom Riddle, this doubt is echoed again, though curiously it has no affect on his course of action. It is Dumbledore's pronouncement about making choices, coupled with the Sword being Gryffindor's, that finally removes Harry's uncertainty about the Sorting Hat's decision. We can safely assume that Harry will never be troubled by this matter again.
 
It apparently never occurs to Harry that many students are probably suited to more than one House. Hermione, for instance, would have seemed destined for Ravenclaw. HoweverInstead, the Sorting Hat, perhaps detecting her strong personality and inherenther couragewillingness to act upon her beliefs, instead placed her in Gryffindor where, influenced by otherher GryffindorsHousemates, she developed, and will continue to do so, abilities she might otherwise have underutilized or completely ignored. Another such student is Neville Longbottom, who appears to be the most timid and frightened student at Hogwarts. Though we still have no idea why he was also sorted into Gryffindor, it should be assumed he has latent abilities as yet unseen. It is prudent to realize that courage also comes in many forms. Harry also failed to consider that even if he was Slytherin's descendant, then so was one of his parents, yet they were both sorted into Gryffindor. Just how and why the Sorting Hat makes thea final determination regarding which House a student is thesorted most suitable,into is not entirely understood, althoughthough the students' individual preferences are considered, as well as family tradition. It does appear that studentsmost are generally satisfied with the Sorting Hat's choice. Whether or not someonea student can change Houses after being sorted is unknown, but interesting to consider.
