instinct 和 intuition 你会混淆吗？

之前有朋友问过我直觉、本能、下意识等问题。今天我简单地举几个例子来分别使用一下这3个单词：

instinct

a way of behaving, thinking, or feeling that is not learned : a natural desire or tendency that makes you want to act in a particular way 本能

• Our first instinct is to run when we come across danger.

当我们遇到危险的时候，我们的第一反应是逃跑。
