urge

1.urge（动词）后面接指人的词和不定式作“敦促（人）…”解，并不含有“那个人果然…”的意思，如He urged her to go并不含有“她去了”的意思，尽可以说He urged her to go, but she refused。

2.an urge to go to sea, the urge to write poetry, the travel urge, the creative urge, the urge towards ideal perfection, the urge for adventure等表达方式里的urge作“冲动”或“强烈的欲望”解，似乎主要是美国用法。

3.urge（动词，敦促、力劝）后面有时接以that引导的从句，从句里用虚拟现在式。例如：I urge that he do (不用does) his best. 和I urged that he do (不用did) his best.

比较下面两句：

• He urges that his son do his best. （他劝告他的儿子努力。）
• He urges that his son does his best. （他力言他的儿子是努力的。）
