I want to copy an item say on desktop to temporary folder.

set sourceFile to "/Users/nareshkongara/Desktop/Saharsh.jpg"
set targetDirectory to "/var/folders/+S/+SfqdTOqEDapIOVh4OYDIE+++TI/-Tmp-/"

tell application "Finder"
duplicate sourceFile to targetDirectory
end tell

Use this ...
set sourceFile to ((path to desktop) as text) & "Saharsh.jpg" as alias
set targetDirectory to (path to temporary items from system domain)
