Pet Dog Dies on United Airlines Flight
.
Summary:
A woman travelling with United Airlines had to put her pet bulldog in an overhead compartment when a flight attendant insisted that it should be removed from underneath her seat due to safety regulations. Deprived of air, the dog was found dead at the end of the journey, for which the airline had apologised.

Language Enhancement:
Insist (v.)(堅持/咬定)
即使對方不願意或不同意,仍然堅持一個說法或強硬地作出要求,就是此字的意思。注意它的用法:insist + (that) + sb. (should) do sth.,或是 insist + on + N. / Gerund / sb. doing sth.。
e.g. The tourist insisted that he bring along his suitcase even though he’s only travelling for one day.
e.g. Without a receipt, insisting on a refund is useless.
