有关insist的用法整理

insist的用法主要有两种，下面小编为大家整理这两种种用法：

1、insist on/upon (sb/one's) (doing) sth

如：You should insist on your dream.

You should insist on her apologizing to you.

2、insist + that引导的宾语从句

1)如果insist翻译为“坚持要求/坚持主张”，即that从句的动作当时尚未发生的话，则宾语从句必须使用虚拟语气，即从句谓语动词由“should + 动词原形”构成，且should可以省略。

如：He insisted that she (should) say sorry to him frist.

2)如果insist翻译为“坚持说/坚持认为”，即that从句表示已经发生的动作时，则宾语从句使用陈述语气，即从句该用什么时态就用什么时态，当然还要和主句时态保持呼应。

如：She insisted (that) she had been to Beijing the year before.

She insisted that she was right.
