working violently
The Boys scamper into their places and sit down and bent their heads right down over their desks as though working violently. ある戯曲の文章ですが小学校で先生が教室に来て急いで生徒が自分の場所（席？）に戻る場面です。 生徒が机の下に頭を隠したのでしょうか？またその様子がas though working violently.とは何を言いたいのでしょうか？ヒントでも結構ですのでアドバイスをお願いいたします。

子供、生徒、学生がworkするとあればまづは『勉強する』の意味です。 学生が『昨夜は一生懸命勉強した』と言うのであれば study という言葉を使うのではなく I worked hard last night というのが普通です。宿題というのも ご承知の通り homework で home studyとはなりません。 したがってご質問の as thought working violently は 『あたかも猛烈に勉強しているようかのように』です。
お礼
ご丁寧なご教授大変ありがとうございました。

1. Dr.King dreamed of a country where "For Whites Only" signs world would come down everywhere, and people of all races could sit down together at the same table.

Early in the history of the country,the Japanese developed an amazing talent for saiku or"delicate craftsmanship".As the Japanese became more skilled at this talent,it branched out into other parts of Japanese life and turned into a powerful impulse to reduce things down to their essence―not just as miniatures that could be viewed and admired,but as fully functioning accessories and devices.It evenaffected the language.Overall,this reduction,born from saiku,moved toward increased convenience and usefulness. 長めですが翻訳お願いします。 サイトは使わないで:

お願いします!続き Then the priests recited prayers to purify Kumar and the other boys who were sitting quietly in a row next to the fire altar.The boys dropped butter and small animal and human figurines made of wheat flour into the sacred fire.The priests sprinkled purified water over the heads of each boy,and then carefully draped the sacred cotton thread over their left shoulders,around their bodies,and under their right arms.This sacred thread was a symbol of the boys' second birth as Brahmin students.(Kshatriya and Vaishya boys could also receive the sacred thread,but they had to wait until they were older.) After receiving the sacred thread,Kumar and his friends moved into the house of a learned priest who tutored them for several yearr.A student's life was very hard.Students collected firewood for fire sacrifices and everyday cooking,helped build fire altars,and learned to make the sacred fire.Most of the time,they memorized the Vedas,carefully pronouncing each sound exactly right to call the deities to sacrifices. Many young boys were not as lucky as Kumar,or even as lucky as the Shudras,the peasants.The Vedic peoples did not have nice things to say about the Dasa,a group of people who spoke a different language that did not sound at all like Sanskrit. The Dasa had probably lived in the region for hundreds of years.Their ancestors in the Indus Valley were the Harappans who had named the rivers and mountains,and had built the cities that now lay abandoned.Although at first the Rig Vedic culture seemed to sweep over the northern plains,many eaqlier traditions of the Harappans lived on and reemerged in later times.
