Q1. Choose the most appropriate word from the options to complete the given sentence: Despite her illness, she insisted _______ going to work as she had plenty of pending work.
Explanation
The verb "insist" is followed by "on" when it means demanding or firmly deciding to do something: "she insisted on going to work." The gerund "going" also confirms this pattern. "In" does not form the idiom with "insisted" here. "For" may show support or purpose in other structures, but it does not connect "insisted" to a gerund. "To" would require a different construction and cannot directly precede "going" after "insisted".
