新概念3上的一道选择题 求答案及解释

He always insisted _____ in full. (l.9)
a. on its being written out b. on writing it out
c. to have it written out d. that it would have to be written out

Answer 1

1. 答案：B.

2. 翻译：他总是坚持用全写的方式把它写出来/写完。

3. 解释：
1）此题考查insist用法。
2）insist后面如果加宾语从句，则根据句意，insist意思是“坚持要求”，所以此从句必须采用虚拟语气，即从句的谓语由“should + 动词原形”构成，而且should可以省略。
由此可以排除D；
3）当然也有insist on/upon doing sth的结构，但是没有insist to do sth，由此排除C；
4）AB对比，he和write out明显为主动关系，所以选B。

Answer 2

a 对。insist on doing sth , write sth out 所以 insist on 后面加动名词的被动形式即：insist on being done 这里是：insisted on its being written out 他总是坚持用全写的方式把它写出来/写完。

Answer 3
