To-infinitive clausal complements usually follow verbs such as: "agree",
"need", "want", "learn", "decide", "promise", "love", "hate", "intend" and
"arrange". Mark the alternative that best describes the meanings
typically conveyed by these verbs:
They refer to a movement towards a given action, rather than
describing the action itself.
They describe proposals, expressing the speaker's or writer's
suggestions or demands.
They are verbs of communicating, which introduce what
someone wishes to say or report.
They are verbs of cognition, because they imply what
someone's mental processes.
They are verbs of expectation, since they convey someone's
wishes, hopes or aspirations.
