Объяснение:

Complex Subject - это ‘сложное подлежащее’. Сложное, потому что сложено из двух частей: существительное\местоимение + инфинитив. А между двумя частями подлежащего вклинивается сказуемое.

Важно:

Сказуемое здесь выражено глаголом в пассивном залоге, исключение — глаголы appear, seem, happen, prove, turn out.

Сказуемое может быть выражено не только глаголом, но и сочетанием «to be + прилагательное»: be likely, be unlikely и др.

Глагол (сказуемое) теоретически может быть в любом времени, но чаще — в настоящем (is unlikely, seems, are said).
