insist作"反复说"、"一定要"、"坚决要求"解,可以是及物动词,也可以是不及物动词。
一、 作不及物动词用时,后跟on或upon引起的短语
    1) insist on/ upon+名词   
    They insisted on a definite answer.
    I insisted on a replacement for the broken part on my bike.     
    Our English teacher insists upon the importance of the correct pronunciation.
   
    2) insist on / upon +动名词(或动名词的复合结构)   
    She insisted on seeing the manager as soon as possible. 
    He insisted on a second message being sent (不用to be sent) to them.
    We insisted upon his staying with us for another week.

    注意: insist on (doing) sth. , stick to (doing) sth. 与persist in (doing) sth.的区别:
    这三个短语都有"坚持"的意思,但侧重点不同。
    insist on (doing) sth.是"坚持"某种做法、意见、主张。如:
    They insisted on leaving that day.  他们坚持要在那天走。
   
    stick to (doing ) sth. 是"坚持"原则、计划、诺言、决定、真理、路线等。如:
    He always sticks to his promise / his plan. 他总是坚守自己的诺言/计划。
    如果表示"继续努力从事于某项工作",stick to后也可接动名词。如:
    If you stick to practising English, you'll make great progress. 要是你每天坚持练习英语,就会取得很大进步。
   
    而persist in (doing )sth.指不作任何改变地坚持某事,可能是一件好事,也可能是一件坏事。常包含"固执己见"的意思,但也可指意志的坚定。如:
    She persists in her opinion. 
    He persists in his sparetime studies.
    She persisted in wearing that old-fashioned dress.
    The old woman persists in taking half an hour's exercise every day. (表示意志的坚定,不用insist on来代替)

二、 insist 作及物动词的用法
    insist的此种用法只能接从句作宾语。
    1)insist作"坚决要求"、"一定要",其宾语从句常用与将来事实相反的虚拟语气,即should+动词原形,其中should可以省略。如:
    Her father insists that she (should) learn music after she leaves school. 
   
    2) insist作"坚持说"、"坚持认为"时,用陈述语气。如:
    Alice insisted that she had done nothing wrong.
   
    3) insist that...有时与insist on / upon互换。如上面1)、2)中的两个例句可分别改写为:
    Her father insists on her learning music after she leaves school.
    Alice insisted on her having done nothing wrong.
//---------------------------------------

insist与suggest一样，有几个意思.
suggest作"暗示"讲,是不接虚拟语气的,而作"建议"讲,要接虚拟语气.
insist作"坚持说某个事实",不接虚拟语气,而作"坚持要某人做某事",表建议,就用虚拟语气.
