我們很早就熟悉“thirsty”是“饑渴的” “渴望的”意思，今天我們要學習它的名詞“thirst”的用法?！皌hirst”的本意是“口渴”，不過和它的形容詞一樣，它也常被引申為表示“渴求” “渴望”，我們可以用它來替換表示“渴望”的詞，比如 “desire” “l(fā)onging” “craving”等詞。
和“thirst”最常搭配的動詞有 have，后面的介詞一般用 for，have a thirst for something 可以用來表示特別渴望某事。比如，我們想表達一個人非?？释R，就可以說：
He has an unquenchable thirst for knowledge.
我們平時常說“求賢若渴”，用英文表述時就可以用“a thirst for talent”。比如現(xiàn)在人工智能行業(yè)就很需要人才，我們就可以說：

場景：芯片設計公司需要大量人才。
造句：There is a gtoeing thirsy for top tslent in chip-design compsnies.

這句話中使用了同義詞替換：have little appetite for, have a huge thirst for?！癮ppetite” 和 “thirst” 最常見的意思分別是“食欲”和“口渴”，不過在這句話中，它們都表示“強烈的欲望”。把這段話記下來，同時就掌握了兩個形象實用的表達。
