Mr. and Mrs. Dursley, of number four, Privet Drive, were proud to say that they were perfectly normal, thank you very much. They were the last people youd expect to be involved in anything strange or mysterious, because they just didnt hold with such nonsense. Mr. Dursley was the director of a firm called Grunnings, which made drills. He was a big, beefy man with hardly any neck, although he did have a very large mustache. Mrs. Dursley was thin and blonde and had nearly twice the usual amount of neck, which came in very useful as she spent so much of her time craning over garden fences, spying on the neighbors. The Dursleys had a small son called Dudley and in their opinion there was no finer boy anywhere. The Dursleys had everything they wanted, but they also had a secret, and their greatest fear was that somebody would discover it. They didnt think they could bear it if anyone found out about the Potters. Mrs. Potter was Mrs. Dursleys sister, but they hadnt met for several years; in fact, Mrs. Dursley pretended she didnt have a sister, because her sister and her good-for-nothing husband were as unDursleyish as it was possible to be. The Dursleys shuddered to think what the neighbors would say if the Potters arrived in the street. The Dursleys knew that the Potters had a small son, too, but they had never even seen him. This boy was another good reason for keeping the Potters away; they didnt want Dudley mixing with a child like that. -------------- (extract from Harry Potter And the Sorcerers Stone by J.K.

A square, balustraded gallery ran round the top of the old hall. It could be approached by a double stair. From this central point two long corridors extended the whole length of the building and from which all the bedrooms opened. My bedroom was in the same wing as Sir Henrys. These rooms were much more modern and brighter than the central part of the house. The dining room which opened out of the hall was a long and dark room. We talked very little while eating. After dinner we sat in the modern billiard room to smoke. It isnt a very cheerful place, is it? said Sir Henry. I suppose we will get used to it, but right now I dont feel comfortable at all. No wonder my uncle was nervous, living all alone in such a house. Shall we retire early tonight? Perhaps in the morning, it might seem a bit more cheerful. 127) Who is the narrator of this passage? 1. Sir Henry Baskerville 2. Watson 3. Sherlock Holmes 4.
