I. 表示“坚持说;坚决认为(多与别人的观点不同)”,接that从句(从句的动作多为已发生之事),从句使用陈述语气。如:

她坚持认为他错了。
II. 表示“坚决主张;坚持要求”,接that从句(从句的动作为将要发生之事),谓语多为 should型的虚拟语气,即:主语 should(可省略) 动词原形。如:

他一定要我们收下这些礼物。
Jane insisted that he be present.
简坚持要他出席。
还可用于“insist on / upon 名词或代词或 动词-ing形式”结构中。如:

他坚持要我跟他一起去。(= He insisted that I [should] go with him.)
I insist on seeing it. 我一定要见到它。(= I insist that I see it.)
Ⅲ. if you insist 常用于口语中,表示勉强同意。如:
All right, I’ll do it, if you insist.

3. A。前一个insist表示“坚决认为”,从句用陈述语气;后一个insist表示“坚持要求”,从句谓语动词用should型的虚拟语气。
4. D。表示“坚持(观点、理论等),遵守(规则等)”,用stick to。 insist on 表示 “坚持要求”。
5. B。句意为“房东坚持要求我付他现金”,故选B。
