However, desire is often used with adjectives such as deep, great, urgent, burning, insatiable and overwhelming, expressing a much stronger feeling; wish is not often used with these adjectives. * desire單獨使用時僅指比wish稍強烈些的願望，但desire經常與形容詞deep、great、urgent、burning、insatiable和overwhelming等連用，表示十分強烈的願望；wish不常與這些形容詞連用。■ temptation tempˈteɪʃn [countable, uncountable] the desire to do or have sth that you know is bad or wrong 誘惑；引誘◆The temptation of easy profits was too much for them.輕而易舉即可獲利，這種誘惑讓他們無法抗拒。◆Don't give in to temptation.别經不起誘惑。◆I couldn't resist the temptation to open the letter.我按捺不住好奇心，把信打開了。  see also tempt ⇨ tempt verb ■ urge [countable] a strong feeling that you must do sth, especially one that is hard to control or hard to understand 強烈的欲望；（難以控制或理解的）沖動◆I had a sudden urge to hit him.我突然很想揍他一頓。◆Freud claimed that this behaviour was caused by the repression of sexual urges.弗洛伊德聲稱這種行爲是性壓抑造成的。   see also urgent ⇨ urgent NOTE 辨析 Need or urge?Both these words often describe feelings that seem to come from the body rather than the mind. 這兩個詞均常指來自身體而非大腦的欲望◆a / an biological / instinctive / primitive need / urge生理／本能／原始的欲望◆sexual needs / urges性需求；性沖動However, needs are usually feelings that are shared by a lot of people and are easy to understand and accept; an urge may be less easy to understand and sth that you try to prevent yourself from doing or expressing. 不過，need通常爲許多人共有且容易理解和接受的欲望，urge則可能是較不易理解且盡量避免付諸實現或表達出來的欲望◆She felt a violent urge to laugh, but suppressed it, with difficulty.她很想大笑，可還是竭力忍住了。 ■ impulse ˈɪmpʌls [countable, usually singular, uncountable] a sudden strong desire to do sth, without stopping to think about the results 沖動；心血來潮的念頭◆He had a sudden impulse to stand up and sing.他突然心血來潮，想站起來唱歌。◆Her first impulse was to run away.她的第一個念頭就是逃走。◆The door was open and on an impulse she went inside.門開着，她一時心血來潮就走了進去。◆He tends to act on impulse.他往往憑一時沖動行事。  see also impulsive ⇨ spontaneous ■ inclination ˌɪnklɪˈneɪʃn [uncountable, countable] (rather formal) a feeling that makes you want to do sth 傾向；意願◆He did not show the slightest inclination to leave.他絲毫沒有表現出要離開的意思。◆He was a loner by nature and by inclination.他生性不喜歡交際，而且也無意於此。◆You must follow your own inclinations when choosing a career.你必須按照自己的意願選擇職業。ⓘ An inclination may not be a very strong feeling: people act according to their inclinations when there is no stronger force to work against them. When people lack any inclination to do sth, it shows that they do not want to do it at all. * inclination可能是一種不太強烈的意願。在沒有更強的反對力量幹擾下，人都是按自己的意願行事。缺乏做某事的意願，就表明根本不想做這件事。   see also inclined to do sth ⇨ prone to sth ■ whim wɪm [countable] (often disapproving) a sudden desire to do or have sth, especially when it is sth unusual or unnecessary 心血來潮；一時沖動；突發奇想◆He was forced to pander to her every whim.她每一次心血來潮他都得順着她。◆We bought the house on a whim.我們一時沖動就買了這所房子。◆She hires and fires people at whim (= as and when she wants to, without good reason).她任意地僱用人和解僱人。■ want [countable, usually plural] something that you want 需要的東西；想要的東西◆She spent her life pandering to the wants of her children.她一生都在設法滿足子女的需要。ⓘ In this meaning, wants is usually used in a possessive phrase such as my/your/his/her/our/their/the customers' wants or the wants of sb. 表達此義時，wants通常用在所有格短語中，如my/your/his/her/our/their/the customers' wants或the wants of sb。   see also want ⇨ need noun , want ⇨ want verb ■ compulsion kəmˈpʌlʃn (rather formal, written) a strong desire to do sth that you cannot easily control, especially sth that is wrong, silly or dangerous （尤指做錯事、傻事或危險事的）強烈欲望，沖動◆He felt a great compulsion to drive too fast.他感到一股想超速飙車的強烈沖動。◆Obsessions and compulsions often develop in people who live stressful lives.生活壓力大的人常常會産生癡迷和易於沖動。   see also compelling ⇨ urgent
