Labor created man himself. That was pointed ourt by Engels a bundred years ago .Man`s hand ,for exanple,is not only an organ of labor but also a product of labor .Apes can use their hands to collect and hold food ,but only man`s hand was ever made the simplest kind of tools.
Language too ,is the product of labor .In labor and war ,people had to work in groups .They had to say something to one another.This led to the use of speech organs.Gradually man learned to speak.
An ape`s strength may be greater than man`s,but man has made machines,and machines can do the work for man .Birds can fly,but man hsas made planes and can fly too .Man`s knowledge comes from practice and man`s brain itself is the product of labor.In a word ,labor has created man and made him different form apes.
译文
劳动和人
劳动创造人类,这是一百年以前恩格斯所指出的。以人的手作为例子，它不仅是劳动的器官，同时也是劳动的产物。猿能够用它的双手去收集和拿住食物，但是只有人的手曾经制作出最简单的工具。
语言也是劳动的产物。人们在劳动和战争中必须集体活动，它们之间必须说话，这就导致了发音器官的集体活动，它们之间必须说话，这就导致了发音器官的使用，人类也就渐渐学会了说话。
猿的力气可比人大，但是人制造了机器，机器能为人干重活；鸟能飞，但人制造了飞机，也能飞。人类的知识来自于实践，而人的头脑本身也是劳动的产物。总之劳动创造人类，并且使人不同于猿。
