The three youths leaned over the metal rails along the sea-wall and watched a few fishermen pull in their nets. About thirty metres away, a boat pulled alongside the slippery steps leading  36  to the sea.

“Hey, look!” exclaimed Rahim. “Those two men are  37  heavy rocks. I thought we no longer do muscle labour in this technological  38  . ”

“They are  41  laborers who know how to spread the weight of the rocks they  42  . See how the man positions the rock just at the slope of his  43  . Some of the rock’s weight is set  44  his head, some on the right hand and some on the left hand. His body isn’t bent. His legs are well  45   . ”

“You can get a computer to   51   multiple-choice assessments, but you cannot get the computer to produce of assess essays, can you?” asked Michael.

“Well, the washing machine leaves my shirt collar quite as  52   as ever --- that’s domestic technology for you! ” said Rahim.

“One day, perhaps, there won’t be anybody   53   who can carry a large rock the way those men do. It’s not going to be a very  54   world, I’m afraid.” Sighed Michael.

“You’re too much of a pessimist (悲观主义者)，Mike.” Said Joshua. “  55  will always be other things that will make the world exciting. ”

After the September 11 terrorist attacks, some high schools in America wanted the students to pledge allegiance（宣誓效忠） to the flag. Is it necessary or not? Let’s see how the kids think of this requirement.

Lea Mouallem, Marymount High School

I believe that saying the Pledge of Allegiance is a way of reminding our country that no matter what happens, we are united. I don’t think our president wants us to go and join the army now, but he wants to tell us that we will be able to overcome the disaster as a whole nation that is working together.

Harry Chin, 15, Culver City High School

I am not for the Pledge of Allegiance and I am not against the Pledge of Allegiance because I just say it so many times that it loses meaning. I say it every day at school in the second period. It doesn’t mean anything any more.

David Tran, 15, Warren High School.

The Pledge of Allegiance is another sign of country. We should have some respect to it. In many schools, we don’t say the Pledge every morning-we just stand up and let the National anthem ring through the silence. We said the Pledge of Allegiance on Sept. 12.

Danny Maryanor, 16, Santa Monica High School

I wonder why we were suddenly asked to recite the Pledge when many of us stopped after elementary school; and the Pledge was recited before the play of “Ode to Joy” （欢乐颂）with recorders. This was not to express patriotism（爱国主义）, or even to remember those who lost their lives on Sept. 11.

I feel I cannot support a nation that in this time of crisis looks outward for revenge（报复）instead of inward for peace. Perhaps we should think more about our problems.
