Answer 1

这是insist的固定用法，以下是insist的几个固定用法:
【用法一】
v.
坚决要求;坚持要;一定要，例1:we
insisted
on
his
apology.
我们要他赔礼道歉。
例2:
she
insisted
on
seeing
us
home.她坚持要送我们回家。
例3:
I
insisted
on
their
arriving
there
ahead
of
time.我坚持要他们提前赶到那。
注:1)insist
on
后面不能接由“名词或代词
+
动词不定式”构成的复合宾语。不能说:the
teacher
insisted
on
all
the
compositions
to
be
handed
in
on
monday.
2)insist
+宾语从句(从句中的谓语动词常用虚拟语气，即should
+
动词原形或省去should)。例如:
the
young
men
insisted
that
they
(should)
be
sent
to
the
front.那些年轻人坚持要求被派往前线去。
【用法二】v.
坚持认为，坚持说，强调
1)
insist
on
+名词。例如:
he
insisted
on
his
innocence.
他坚持说自己无罪。
2)insist
on
+
宾语从句在表示一个客观事实时(谓语动词不用虚拟语气，而应用陈述语气)。例如:
the
boy
insisted
that
he
hadn’t
broken
the
glass.那小男孩坚持说他没有打烂玻璃杯。
