以下是我从该吧找到哈利波特第7部的相关资料
哈利波特第7部部分内容披露:
1.哈利波特7将是7本中的最厚一本.......只要不出哈8.......
2.邓不利多会用另一种方式回来,但不是复活,会给哈7剧情带来大推动~
3.霍格沃茨会无限期停课,直到伏地魔被消灭为止.....
4.罗哈赫3位仍留在霍格沃茨,因邓不利多留下的日记认为,霍格沃茨遗留着伏地魔恐惧的力量,伏地魔想得到它,可3位主角必须比他先找到
5.在下一集JK会带着主角正式揭开霍格沃茨的历史和他神秘的力量以及《霍格沃茨.一段校史》这本书背后隐藏的秘密
6.金妮正式和哈利表白,表示:无论发生什么,她将永远和哈利站在一起.....看来是罗琳早就安排好了......
7.凤凰社成员和食死徒展开殊死搏斗,为哈利争取时间......
8.邓不利多的计划是让哈利直接面对伏地魔.....理由是凤凰社无法组织起对抗伏地魔军团的力量....
9.最后的较量是在哈利出生时的家展开,双方好象用了时光倒流的方法,并要阻止什么...
10.小说将揭开3个令人目瞪口呆的秘密:为什么伏地魔要干掉哈利和为什么伏地魔不能干掉哈利和为什么哈利有击败伏地魔的力量......
11.4位主角(你没看错,有一个是金妮)的3位都将因受重伤和牵制时间而不能陪哈利走到最后,噢...万幸是大家都没丢命~~~~~~~
12.罗恩向赫敏表白了,但当时场面太混乱,事后赫敏问他又不承认.....
13.纳威和马尔福都将起到扭转乾坤的作用......
14.斯内普会没命
大结局预测
人物篇
●邓布利多复活
我充分相信邓布利多也是实实在在的永远离我们而去了,但《哈7》里他依然会用一种方式指导哈利,邓布利多应该是在学校范围内帮助哈利,因为哈利参加葬礼时露出了微笑,并说,老邓说过只有全校没有人再忠诚于他时,他才会离开。这就说明,哈利有种隐隐的敏感,老邓还会帮他。比如通过画像聊天。但也有另一种可能。邓布利多的吉祥物是凤凰,凤凰最大的特点就是可以浴火重生。所以邓布利多在《哈7》中重生是可以写得顺理成章的。
●哈利·波特被杀
尽管有人说他已从罗琳话里听出了哈利·波特将要被杀的意思,但我相信罗林会因为最终受不了大家的反对声,再给他写活,就像《福尔魔斯归来记》那样。当然,这要看罗林对金钱和前途的看法了。我倒是认为《哈7》哈利·波特就是七分之一的伏地魔。《哈6》最重要的一个魔法是魂器。伏地魔把自己的灵魂分成了七个部分藏在不同的东西里面,这样可以确保他的永生。这七分之一的灵魂封存在了哈利·波特的身上,使他具有了伏地魔的一些特征,比如会说蛇语等等。哈利·波特要想战胜伏地魔,最终还是要战胜自己身体里面那*的一部分呢。
●哈利将和金妮在一起
罗恩和赫敏应该后悔走到一起;卢平和唐克斯也会在一起,并且不会死去,当然不包括老死;卢娜有可能会和纳威在一起;最后说说哈利,应该会和金妮在一起,看起来两人很知己,《哈6》里不是哈利决定离开金妮,他很明白金妮会理解支持的,这种共同的情感以前他和张秋在一起时没有出现过。(郦亮)
道具篇
●照妖镜
这种神秘的镜子有一种神奇的功效,就是当敌人靠近的时候能够告诉你危险究竟来自何方。在第四集中,这种镜子第一次出现。到了第五集中这面镜子再次出现。也许,哈利·波特在最终大战伏地魔的时候会派上大用场。
●自动答题羽毛笔
这是一支“魔笔”。能够帮人自动答题,这样考试的时候带上这支笔就可以高枕无忧了。另外,更加神奇的是这种笔还能替人接听电话。由于哈利·波特在最后一集中将会从魔法学校毕业,因此这种笔可能助他一臂之力。
●连击飞回镖
由于涉嫌偷窃,因此这种具有神奇魔力的宝贝被禁止在霍格沃茨使用。这是能够连着打击敌人的魔力飞镖,从打飞镖的人发出之后,这种飞回镖会连续打击敌人,直到对方没有还手之力为止。而且这种宝贝能自动回到主人手里。
除了:2.邓不利多会用另一种方式回来,但不是复活,会给哈7剧情带来大推动~
和9.最后的较量是在哈利出生时的家展开,双方好象用了时光倒流的方法,并要阻止什么...
罗琳肯定会反其道而行
至少我这么认为 因为没人认为邓老头会死的时候 他死了 至少在我的朋友当中没人认为他会死
以下是我写的猜测中的一些片段 只是猜测 但我已经是尽可能的想一些不可能的写上去了
1.魂器的数量:其实魂器不止6个(灵魂为7片)
邓(邓布利多)消灭的那个伏地魔没有察觉
但哈利的消灭的那个书 已经被卢修斯告诉了伏地魔
所以伏地魔想要把魂从新做出来一个
所以他想起利用哈利的死做出一个
因为他上次想利用哈利的死时 自己出事了
这次他选择在刚复活时 也就是在哈利拿到3强杯时
但哈利又逃跑了
伏地魔在他即将逃跑时没有办法 只有暂时利用塞得里克的死
暂时造出一个魂器
伏地魔造出的魂器对自己都有特别的意义 比如书是记载他的思想
挂坠盒是斯来哲林的 还有拉文科劳的杯子
这次选择的魂器是帮助于他复活的 “三强杯”
后来它一直存放在霍格沃茨的历史馆里
和哈利的父亲的魁地奇奖章放在一起
2.斯内普是哪边的人:大家可能还记得
斯内普冲上塔楼时马尔福和其他人正用魔杖指着邓
如果斯内普不先出手 那邓就必死了
如果他动手 邓还有可能生还
具体他是如何让邓生还的 请参看下面的合成咒语
3.合成咒:哈利波特在6中说过不想回学校了
但在参加比尔的婚礼时 接到了邓生前留下的信
信上说无论如何要相信斯内普 还让哈要读完七年
这样他才能与伏地魔相抗衡
因为这一年 他们要学习一门新咒语“合成咒”
麦格教授介绍说:
合成咒可以应用到现有的所有领域里
有些魔药无法搅拌 只能靠“合成咒”合成
有些草药随身携带 而且要带很多时 就可以用“合成咒”把它变成一种草药
还有变形术 大家都知道那只是障眼法 而且可以随便变形 但当施法者死去或法力消失时 就会变会原样 但“合成咒”只能合成现有的东西但合成之后永远不会变回原样 但这种用法很难 历史上只有斯来哲林成功用过 他将鹰和马合在了一起(你们应该知道他合成了什么了吧)
当然魔咒学也能用到 比如可以将两个魔咒合成为一个魔咒
但相应的会抵消另一个魔咒的力量 就象鹰头马身有翼兽
但这种方法经常无法控制每一种魔法的大小
而这就是斯内普如何让邓不利多活下来的方法
他把“索命咒”和“除你武器”合在了一起
还记得塞德里克死时是直接倒地
而邓是飞了出去 因为这个魔咒具备了“除你武器”的冲击力
4.关于“圣堂”(自创 是开篇)
哈利又回到了 女贞路 在街道对面有一坐教堂 叫圣堂 但前一段时间 里面有人神秘死亡 其他的就没什么了 全是废话了 只要记住这个地方就行
以后介绍他是干什么的
5.关于“魔仪”(自创 也是我写的小说中的一大精髓)
哈利在学校的最后一年快要结束时 要去魔法部实习 本来他不打算去当傲罗
但魂器已经被“新校长”和新来的“黑魔法防御术老师”消灭的差不多了(“新校长”和“新黑魔法防御术”教师 我以后会介绍)在实习时(赫敏和罗恩和他一起进入了魔法部)去了一段时间魔法*带哈利见到了 一直监视未成年人在校外使用魔法的仪器——“魔仪”
他们走进神秘事物司 路过了那扇一直打不开的门 走进了另一扇门
走进去后 哈利象是踩在了一幅很大的地图上
魔法*介绍说:
当有人在使用魔法时 他所在的位置就会发光
这样就能知道位置了
不知你们还记不记得 在第四部后面 很多人用魔咒 打了马尔福
哈利用了“多毛咒”乔治用了“软腿咒” 但马尔福脸上长了角
他们说的是这两种咒语不能一起用 实际上是他们用的力度不同
没有将两种咒语 融合在一起
按我的说法 合在一起就不会有这种事
6.哈利父母的墓 和自己家
墓地的事我就不介绍了 想也能想到
而家呢 也没什么特别的 只是门牌号码象手写出来的一样 歪歪扭扭的写着女贞路219号
7.关于布莱克家族:你们难道没有想过小天狼星为什么做活点地图那么厉害呢
在书中始终只有着一份 连很会高发明创造的卫斯莱兄弟都没做出复制品呢?
很显然 按我的写法 魔仪是布莱克家族制作并看管的(具体魔仪有什么用 以后会介绍)
8.神秘事物司里的那扇打不开的门
邓曾经说过 哈利拥有里面的所有的力量
从前作看 只能解释为——爱
哈利后来会发现 原来所有的布莱克家族的血统的人都是魔仪的保密人
但哈利没有血统只是家产的继承人
但哈利想可能小天狼星会留下纸条之类的东西
就象哈利当初利用邓给的纸条 找到凤凰社一样
后来哈利想起 自己的父亲是小天狼星最好的朋友
东西可能藏在 “自己”的家
这时他发现了那个门牌 他拿下了他 去了女贞路
而那个教堂是 女贞路218号 哈利在周围喊了一声 :“女贞路219号”
这时教堂旁边开了个门
进去之后是 和魔仪所在的房间一样的房间
但地图上每一个点上都有了名字(另外那间没有) 而且上面有一个发光的球体
地图上的点有一条线与光球相连 并且经常有绿色的光从点上流向光球
而光球则有粉红色的光流向地图上的点
在房间里可还有一道门(这里是学校老师陪着哈利来的)
邓示意哈利可以开门
当门一打开 几道魔法的光*近来(伏地魔等人冲了近来) 然后是老师救了哈利
这是哈利发现 原来这道门是神秘事物司里那到打不开的门 而这里就是那间房间
然后 新校长解释到:
每个人有“爱”时会产生力量 汇总到这间房间的光球里
当人们使用魔法是 光球会“爱”转化成魔法 送到个人那里

Mini biography
Joanne Rowling was born in Yate, near Bristol, a few miles south of a town called Dursley (Harry Potter's muggle-family). Her father Peter Rowling was an engineer for Rolls Royce in Bristol at this time. Her mother, Anne, was half-French and half-Scottish. They met on a train as it left King's Cross Station in London. Her sister Diana is about 2 years younger than Joanne. In 1971, Peter Rowling moved his family to the nearby village of Winterbourne (still in the Bristol vicinity). During the family's residence in Winterbourne, Jo and Di Rowling were friends with neighborhood children, Ian and Vikki Potter. In 1974, the Rowling family moved yet again, this time to Tutshill, near the Welsh border town of Chepstow (in the Forest of Dean) and across the Severn River from the greater Bristol area. Rowling admits to having been a bit of a daydreamer as a child and began writing stories at the age of six. After leaving Exeter University, where she read French and Classics, she started work as a teacher but daydreamed about becoming a writer. One day, stuck on a delayed train for four hours between Manchester and London, she dreamt up a boy called Harry Potter. That was in 1990. It took her six years to write the book. In the meantime she went to teach in Portugal, married a Portuguese TV journalist, had her daughter, Jessica, divorced her husband and returned to Britain when Jessica was just three months old. She went to live in Edinburgh to be near her sister, Di. Her sudden penury made her realise that it was "back-against-the-wall time" and she decided to finish her Harry Potter book. She sent the manuscript to two agents and one publisher, looking up likely prospects in the library. One of these agents that she picked at random based on the fact that she liked his name, Christopher Little, was immediately captivated by the manuscript and signed her on as his client within three days. During the 1995-1996 timeframe, while hoping to get the manuscript for Philosopher's Stone published, Rowling worked as a French teacher in Edinburgh. Several publishers turned down the manuscript before Bloomsbury agreed to purchase it in 1996.

Jorge Arantes (16 October 1992 - 30 November 1993) (divorced) 1 child
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Trivia
Graated from Exeter University
Is a former English teacher
She writes all of her books in longhand, rather than with a computer.
Daughter, Jessica Rowling Arantes was born on July 27, 1993
Her book, 'Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire', was the top-selling book of 2000, with 7 million hardcovers sold.
When the first Harry Potter novel was published, the publisher asked her to use initials rather than her first name because boys would be biased against a book written a woman. Since she only had one given name, they then asked her to make up another initial; she took K. from her favorite grandmother, Kathleen.
She was awarded the O.B.E. (Officer of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire) and received it from one of her fans, Charles, the Prince of Wales.
Son, David Gordon Rowling, born March 24, 2003 in Edinburgh
In 2002, she was sued for plagiarism in the District Court of the Southern District of New York by Pennsylvania-based author Nancy Stouffer who claimed that J K Rowling had lifted ideas from her 1984 book The Legend of Rah and Muggles, which includes a character called Larry Potter. However the case against J K Rowling was dismissed on 19 September 2002 when the judged ruled that Ms Stouffer had lied to the court and doctored evidence to support her claims.
Is one of only two contemporary authors to have a novel spend more than a year on both the New York Times hardcover and paperback best-seller lists (the other author being Nicholas Sparks)
As of November 2002 (the year and month of the second Harry Potter movie being released) her franchise of books have currently sold over 175,000,000 copies and printed in over 200 languages to become the biggest and fastest selling novels ever.
On 3 April 2003 she and Time Warner successfully sued Dutch publishing company Byblos in the Amsterdam High Court. This prevents Byblos publishing Russian author Dmitry Yemets' novel "The Magic Double Bass" which features a girl wizard Tanya Grotter. It was deemed to plagiarise Rowling's novel "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" and to infringe her copyright.
Her latest book, titled "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix," was published on June 21, 2003. It was approximately 6 pages long, containing 38 chapters and over 255,000 words (her longest Harry Potter book yet). The first U.S. printing was 8.5 million copies, an American publishing record.
In 2003, unauthorized Chinese-language "sequels" to the Harry Potter series appeared for sale in the People's Republic of China. These poorly written books (written by Chinese ghost writers) contain characters from the works of other authors, including Gandalf from J.R.R. Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings", and the title character from L. Frank Baum's "The Wizard of Oz". Rowling's lawyers successfully took legal action against the publishers who were forced to pay damages.
She is a big fan of the rock band The Smiths and in 2003 she appeared on the Channel Four documentary "The Importance of Being Morrissey".
Two apparent references to the Monty Python sketch "Crunchy Frog" can be found in her Harry Potter books: two of the sweets are a chocolate frog, and a cockroach cluster. Monty Python member John Cleese appears in the films.
One of her favorite movies is "The Fabulous Baker Boys", which was written and directed by Harry Potter screenwriter Steven Kloves.
She received an honorary degree from Edinburgh University in recognition of the Potter books and her outstanding contribution to children's literature. [7 July 2004]
Her 3rd child, Mackenzie Jean Rowling, was born on January 23, 2005 in Edinburgh
Character names in her books are often clues to their identities or secrets. For example, Professor Remus Lupin is a werewolf. According to myth, Romulus and Remus were the founders of Rome, and were raised by wolves. His last name, Lupin, is derived from the Latin lupus, for wolf, and the English adjective lupine, meaning wolf-like. Lupin was converted into a werewolf by Fenrir Greyback, whose name is taken from Fenrir, the monstrous wolf son of Loki in Norse mythology. (His alias, Fenrisulfr, was the basis for Fenris Ulf, the American name for Maugrim in C.S. Lewis's Chronciles of Narnia.) Sirius Black, who turns into a black dog, is named for the star Sirius, which can be found in the constellation Canis Major - the big dog.
Whilst at University, she had little money, so for friends birthdays, she wrote them personal little stories.
Shares the same birthday with Michael Klesic, Wesley Snipes, Ben Chaplin, Barry Van Dyke, Emilia Fox and Loren Dean.
Has three children: Jessica, David & Mackenzie
After spending six years writing the first instalment of her "Harry Potter" novels, Rowling was rejected by 9 publishers before London's Bloomsbury Publishing signed her on
The day she signed her contract for the first Harry Potter novel, the publishing representative told her she would not make any money selling children's books.
Originally wrote Harry Potter to pay off her gas bills while living in a tiny flat with her then, baby daughter.
Although she incorporates characteristics of people she knows into Harry Potter characters, she says that the character Gilderoy Lockhart is the only character she purposely based on someone she knew. She would not say who she based the character on, only that it was not her ex-husband, and that whoever it was is probably so ignorant and so narcissistic, that he is probably claiming either to be the basis for Albus Dumbledore, or the real author of the Harry Potter books.
Claims her first audience for Harry Potter was her daughter, whom she would read parts of the story that she wrote to as a bedtime story.
Is a huge fan of Monty Python and claims to put some of their humor into her books.
Owens two properties in the Perthshire and Edinburgh areas of Scotland. In 2003, she hired a former SAS officer as her bodyguard to patrol her Perth home and protect her family.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Personal quotes
Asked by an interviewer about the next Harry Potter book: "Well, it will be a papery object with pages inside."
Discussing her daughter, Jessica: "Kids at her school will sidle up to me and say, 'Does Jessica know what happens in book 4? Does Jessica know the title of book 4?' And I keep saying, 'No! There is no point kidnapping her, taking her around back of the bike shed, and torturing her for information.'"
"Bigotry is probably the thing I detest most."
"I had an American journalist say to me, 'Is it true you wrote the whole of the first novel on napkins?' I was tempted to say, 'On teabags, I used to save them.'"
"I gave my hero a talent I'd love to have. Who wouldn't want to fly?"
"The spells are made up. I have met people who assure me, very seriously, that they are trying to do them, and I can assure them, just as seriously, that they don't work."
When asked what the title would be for book six: "It will be called 'Harry Potter and...' something. Catchy, don't you think? And I think I'll follow the same model for seven."
"People ask me if there are going to be stories of Harry Potter as an alt. Frankly, if I wanted to, I could keep writing stories until Harry is a senior citizen, but I don't know how many people would actually want to read about a 65 year old Harry still at Hogwarts playing bingo with Ron and Hermione."
