請觀察空格後方緊跟著的介系詞「on」以及動名詞「going」，並思考：在前一句提到媽媽很少主動要求的情況下，轉折詞「But」會帶出爸爸帶著什麼樣的態度主動想去？哪一個動詞常與「on」連用來表達這種強烈的主動意願？

太棒了，選 (E) insisted 完全正確！ 這題的解題關鍵在於動詞與介系詞的慣用搭配。空格後方緊接著介系詞「on」，並以動名詞「going」作為受詞。在所有選項中，只有動詞 insist 能與介系詞 on 形成固定片語「insist on + V-ing」（堅持做某事）。配合上下文，前一句提到媽媽很少主動叫爸爸去市場，因此轉折詞 But 帶出「但每當爸爸『堅持』要去時」，語意與文法皆完美契合。 本題屬於學測文意選填中非常標準的「動詞片語考點」。只要平時對常見的動詞搭配介系詞具備高敏銳度，就能在第一時間鎖定答案，是穩穩拿分的基本題型！
