      Question

      Select the most appropriate option to substitute the bold

      segment in the given sentence. She insisted to go to the meeting despite the heavy rain.
      A insisted for going Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B insisted on going Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C insisted to going Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D insisted on go Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The verb "insist" is followed by the preposition "on" and a gerund (verb + ing). So, the correct construction is "insisted on going."
      “Insisted to go” is incorrect because "insist" does not take the infinitive “to + verb.”
      Other options are either grammatically incorrect or awkward in structure.
