(1) c raising + wh-movement
In this sentence wh-movement and raising are combined. The verb appear is also a
raising verb selecting a clausal complement. The subject of the embedded infinitival
clause is not assigned Case so it moves to the specifier position of the IP of the finite
clause. Since it is an instance of subject questions the question word has to move on to
the Spec,CP position. The verb appears can also undergo movement to C, it will not
precede the subject. The verb adore in the embedded clause selects an experiencer
subject which can appear in the specifier position of a light verb, which is a bound
morpheme inducing movement of the lexical verb adore. The second vP in the
embedded clause hosts the tense morpheme, infinitival to.
