区别：seem to be doing VS seem to do

老师，您好~~请问"seem to be reaching for"和"seem to reach for"有什么区别呢？O(∩_∩)O谢谢~~

In fact, however hesitantly and inarticulately, the two protagonists and their American umpire (seem to be reaching for) the decade-old, unconsummated "Clinton Parameters" as the way to solve the impasse over settlements, and, perhaps, as the formula for a wider agreement.——The Economist

多见动作动词（短语）seem to be doing ，强调不定式的动作与主句动词 seem 同时发生且正在进行。
多见静态动词用于 seem to do，此类动词没有进行时态，比如 seem to know nothing about it

seem to reach for 读来很别扭的，对吧？

谢谢老师，不过，会不会seem to be doing更倾向于一种想法，而seem to do倾向于采取实际动作？

不是的，只是时间区别。前面已经述及。

当然，只要用到 seem ，说话人的语气便不是绝对的肯定。但 seem 比 appear 更接近真实的可能。
