However, a former steel worker who spoke with VOA says the program works and should be expanded. Michael Smith worked at the Bethlehem Steel Mill in Sparrows Point, Maryland. The mill was once a major producer of steel. It employed as many as 30,000 Americans. Mr. Smith was a crane operator for Bethlehem Steel for 13 years. Recently, he returned to the grounds. "I remember what this place used to be. I remember the sights, the sounds, the tractors. It's actually hard physically standing here. I mean, my heart hurts."_____________________________但是,一名前钢铁工人告诉美国之音该计划有用且应该普及.迈克尔史密斯以前在位于马里兰州斯帕罗斯角的伯利恒钢铁厂工作.该工厂曾经是一家重要钢铁制造厂,拥有多达30000名的员工,史密斯先生作为起重机操作员在该公司工作了13年,但是,最近,他又回到了这里.
