　　(比较: I am glad to see you.)

　　He is said to have written a new book about workers.

　　He pretended not to have seen me.

　　进行式: 如果主要谓语表示的动作(状态)发生时, 不定式表示的动作正在进行, 这时要用不定式的进行式。

　　You are not supposed to be working. You haven't quite recovered yet.

　　We didn't expect you to be waiting for us here.

　　He pretended to be listening attentively¹.

　　完成进行式: 在谓语所表示的时间之前一直进行的动作, 就要用不定式的完成进行式.
