①The old man ________ his sons and daughters ________ and see him from time to time.

A．suggested；to come B．hoped；to come

C．desired；coming D．desired；to come

【解析】desire sb.to do sth.意为“希望某人做某事”。句意为：这个老人希望他的儿子和女儿时不时地来看看他。suggest和hope后不能跟sb. to do sth.，故A、B项错误。

【答案】 D

②He insisted that he ________ nothing wrong and strongly desired he ________ free.

A．did；set B．had done；should be set

C．should do；be set D．had done；must be set

【解析】当insist 意为“坚持说”时，其后的宾语从句不用虚拟语气。第二空desire 后跟从句要用虚拟语气即谓语动词用(should) do形式。

【答案】 B
