5. bump me a deck：这是非常俚语的讲法。bump这里的意思相当于lend，deck是指a pack of cigarettes。所以整句的意思就是“借我一盒烟”。监狱里的犯人常常用一种普通人听不懂的指代词语来谈论一些事情，这可以说是他们长年牢狱生活的“创造”。


bump into 偶然遇见
I bumped into her at the market just last week.

smuggle 走私
6. be into sb：这也是一个非常俚语的讲法。在这里的是borrow或者owe的意思。整句话的意思就是：You have already borrowed five packs from me.

RED: And that's how it came to pass, that on the second-to-last day of the job, the convict crew that tarred the plate factory roof in the spring of '49 wound up sitting in a row at ten o'clock in the morning, drinking icy cold Bohemian style of beer, courtesy of the hardest screw that ever walked a turn at Shawshank State Prison.

HADLEY: Drink up while it's cold, ladies.

RED: The colossal prick even managed to sound magnanimous.

RED: We sat and drank with the sun on our shoulders, and felt like free men. We could'a been tarring the roof of one of our own houses. We were the lords of all creation .

RED: As for Andy, he spent that break hunkered in the shade, a strange little smile on his face, watching us drink his beer.

HEYWOOD: Want a cold one, Andy.

ANDY: No thanks. I gave up drinking.  

RED: You could argue he'd done it to curry favor with the guards. Or maybe make a few friends among us cons. Me, I think he did it just to feel normal again...if only for a short while.

1. wind up：这里要特别注意wind一词的发音/waind/, 作动词，wind up的意思是“使自己处于某种状态或某个地方”。如：“He wound up drunk.（他不知不觉醉了。）”在影片里整句话描述的是干活的犯人们坐在一起喝啤酒的这种状态。
