human being也可表示“人类”,它是可数名词,有单复数之分.其意义比较具体,它一般用来区别人以外的事物,特别是动物或者是“神”,“鬼”之类.例如:Without its light and warmth there would be neither plants nor animals nor human beings.没有光和热,就不可能有植物,动物,也不可能有人类.Although the Negroes were human beings just like the whites,they were not treated as humanbeing.尽管黑人和白人一样都是属于人类,但是他们并没有被当作人对待.
man一般以单数形式出现(现在也有人以复数men表示“人类”),其前不能置任何限定词,其相应的代词应是he,him,his,himself.例如:The changes between the states have been used by man to work for him since ancient times.自古以来,人类就利用这两种状态的变化为自己服务.Engels pointed out a hundred years ago that labour created man himself.恩格斯一百多年以前就指出,劳动创造了人类本身.
