Напишите пересказ фрагмента из Гарри Поттера 8-10 предложений в времени! Сории забыл поставить, потом пере в комментах:))

Ex. 3 Read the book fragment and write a short summary (8-10 sentences) in Past Tense. Read carefully, as the text doesn’t fully comply with the movie:

Ten minutes later, Snape returned, and sure enough it was Professor McGonagall who accompanied him. “Sit,” she said, and they both backed into chairs by the fire. “Explain,” she said, her glasses glinting ominously. Ron launched into the story, starting with the barrier at the station refusing to let them through. “— so we had no choice, Professor, we couldn’t get on the train.” “Why didn’t you send us a letter by owl? I believe you have an owl?” Professor McGonagall said coldly to Harry. Harry gaped at her. Now she’d said it, that seemed the obvious thing to have done.

“I — I didn’t think —” “That,” said Professor McGonagall, “is obvious.” There was a knock on the office door and Snape, now looking happier than ever, opened it.

Snape looked as though Christmas had been canceled. He cleared his throat and said, “Professor Dumbledore, these boys have flouted the Decree for the Restriction of Underage Wizardry, caused serious damage to an old and valuable tree — ”

“It will be for Professor McGonagall to decide on these boys’ punishments, Severus,” said Dumbledore calmly. “They are in her House and are therefore her responsibility.” He turned to Professor McGonagall. “I must go back to the feast, Minerva, I’ve got to give out a few notices. Come, Severus, there’s a delicious-looking custard tart I want to sample —”
