Question

Bob insisted that he ________ nothing wrong and ________ from work.

A．did; won’t be fired	B．had done; not be fired
C．should do; mustn’t be fired	D．do; shouldn’t be fired

Answer 1

B

試題分析：insist作堅(jiān)決要求、一定要,其賓語(yǔ)從句常用與將來(lái)事實(shí)相反的虛擬語(yǔ)氣,即should +do;should可以省略。如: Her father insists that she (should) learn music after she leaves school. insist作堅(jiān)持說(shuō)、堅(jiān)持認(rèn)為時(shí),用陳述語(yǔ)氣。如: Alice insisted that she had done nothing wrong.
點(diǎn)評(píng)：本題難度適中。這是學(xué)生很容易混淆的insist的這兩種用法。命題者經(jīng)常在學(xué)生容易出錯(cuò)的地方設(shè)題，還需學(xué)生對(duì)于這里語(yǔ)境理解才能做對(duì)。
即學(xué)即練：The man insisted ________ a taxi for me even though I told him I
lived nearby.
A. find       B. to find    C. on finding D. in finding
解析：C。因?yàn)閕nsist后要么接that從句，要么接on sth. 或on doing sth. ，沒(méi)有別的情況，所以選C。insist on doing堅(jiān)持要做某事。
