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单独使用时仅指比wish稍强烈些的愿望，但desire经常与形容词deep、great、urgent、burning、insatiable和overwhelming等连用，表示十分强烈的愿望；wish不常与这些形容词连用。■ temptation tempˈteɪʃn [countable, uncountable] the desire to do or have sth that you know is bad or wrong 诱惑；引诱◆The temptation of easy profits was too much for them.轻而易举即可获利，这种诱惑让他们无法抗拒。◆Don't give in to temptation.别经不起诱惑。◆I couldn't resist the temptation to open the letter.我按捺不住好奇心，把信打开了。  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 强烈的欲望；（难以控制或理解的）冲动◆I had a sudden urge to hit him.我突然很想揍他一顿。◆Freud claimed that this behaviour was caused by the repression of sexual urges.弗洛伊德声称这种行为是性压抑造成的。   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. 这两个词均常指来自身体而非大脑的欲望◆a / an biological / instinctive / primitive need / urge生理／本能／原始的欲望◆sexual needs / urges性需求；性冲动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. 不过，need通常为许多人共有且容易理解和接受的欲望，urge则可能是较不易理解且尽量避免付诸实现或表达出来的欲望◆She felt a violent urge to laugh, but suppressed it, with difficulty.她很想大笑，可还是竭力忍住了。 ■ impulse ˈɪmpʌls [countable, usually singular, uncountable] a sudden strong desire to do sth, without stopping to think about the results 冲动；心血来潮的念头◆He had a sudden impulse to stand up and sing.他突然心血来潮，想站起来唱歌。◆Her first impulse was to run away.她的第一个念头就是逃走。◆The door was open and on an impulse she went inside.门开着，她一时心血来潮就走了进去。◆He tends to act on impulse.他往往凭一时冲动行事。  see also impulsive ⇨ spontaneous ■ inclination ˌɪnklɪˈneɪʃn [uncountable, countable] (rather formal) a feeling that makes you want to do sth 倾向；意愿◆He did not show the slightest inclination to leave.他丝毫没有表现出要离开的意思。◆He was a loner by nature and by inclination.他生性不喜欢交际，而且也无意于此。◆You must follow your own inclinations when choosing a career.你必须按照自己的意愿选择职业。ⓘ 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可能是一种不太强烈的意愿。在没有更强的反对力量干扰下，人都是按自己的意愿行事。缺乏做某事的意愿，就表明根本不想做这件事。   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 心血来潮；一时冲动；突发奇想◆He was forced to pander to her every whim.她每一次心血来潮他都得顺着她。◆We bought the house on a whim.我们一时冲动就买了这所房子。◆She hires and fires people at whim (= as and when she wants to, without good reason).她任意地雇用人和解雇人。■ want [countable, usually plural] something that you want 需要的东西；想要的东西◆She spent her life pandering to the wants of her children.她一生都在设法满足子女的需要。ⓘ 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. 表达此义时，wants通常用在所有格短语中，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 （尤指做错事、傻事或危险事的）强烈欲望，冲动◆He felt a great compulsion to drive too fast.他感到一股想超速飙车的强烈冲动。◆Obsessions and compulsions often develop in people who live stressful lives.生活压力大的人常常会产生痴迷和易于冲动。   see also compelling ⇨ urgent
