the 1st i'm not sure of. the 2nd should be hard work never goes to waste. it's a proverb.

the 3rd, it means she had a very strong feeling towards doing something and she counldn't be persuaded to change her mind. that's what the word 'insist' means.
hope this is of some help.

Hello,
IMHO,
1. Two and two makes four.
2. Hard work never goes waste.
(I’ve found similar sentences using Google).
3. She insisted to do this. There’s nothing to correct. I think it’s OK.
WRT all of you!

I agree with Jamie and Lucy about "Hard work never goes to waste". I've had a mistake.

1. I have seen the first one with either verb "makes/make".

I prefer the singular verb "makes"

2. Hard work never goes to waste.

3. She insisted on doing this.

In British English the plural '2 and 2 make 4' is very common. :?
