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.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.
