The Story of Philosophy《哲学的故事》第1章Plato第5节V. The Political Problem第1段第2句引文第2句：

Justice would be simple matter, says Plato, if men were simple; an anarchist communism would suffice. For a moment he gives his imagination reign:
First, then, let us consider what will be their way of life…. Will they not produce corn, and wine, and clothes, and shoes, and build houses for themselves? And when they are housed they will work in summer commonly stripped and barefoot, but in winter substantially clothed and shod. They will feed on barley and wheat, baking the wheat and kneading the flour, making noble puddings and loaves; these they will serve up on a mat of reed or clean leaves, themselves reclining the while upon beds of yew or myrtle boughs. And they and their children will feast, drinking of the wine which they have made, wearing garlands on their heads, and having praises of the gods on their lips, living in sweet society, and having a care that their families do not exceed their means; for they will have an eye to poverty or war…. Of course they will have a relish — salt, and olives, and cheese, and onions, and cabbages or other country herbs which are fit for boiling; and we shall give them a dessert of figs, and pulse, and beans, and myrtleberries, and beechnuts which they will roast at the fire, drinking in moderation. And with such a diet they may be expected to live in peace to a good old age, and bequeath a similar life to their children after them (273).
浙江大学译本：他们不是要为自己生产粮食、酿酒，制作衣服、鞋子，建造房屋吗？

解析

1、Will they not produce corn, and wine, and clothes, and shoes, and build houses for themselves?
难道他们不会为自己种植谷物、酿酒、制作衣物及鞋子，以及建造房屋？

这里中的一个produce指代了中文的“种植”“酿造”“制作”，强调通过某种方式或过程创造出物品。虽然少了些具体过程，但很简单。
