Question

【题目】This old professor insisted that he _____energetic enough and that he _____．

A．be, shouldn’t retire B．was, not retire

C．should be, shouldn’t retire D．was, should retire

Answer 1

【答案】B

【解析】

试题分析：insist 做及物动词后加从句.分两种情况.A).表坚持要去做某事(未做)insist+that从句(主语+should+动词原形)should可省也可以不省,但要记住动词一定要用原形.如:I insist that we should start at once=I insist that we start at once.这是一种虚拟语气.B)但如果表对已经发生过的事的一种看法,(注意;是对已经发生过的事)则使用正常时态.如:Iinsisted that i had done nothing wrong.我坚持认为我没有做错。句意：老教授坚持自己有足够的精力并且坚持不被退休。
