A question about the infinitive

Please remember to use proper capitalization when you post your questions. Capitals are a part of English grammar.

He has not taken office yet, so you can't use a form that shows the visit is in the past, so B won't work.
The infinitive alone won't work either, so A is out.

Thanks,Grammar Geek.

It's my fault about the capital. I'll deal with them in right way.

Do you mean C is right?

It's the best choice of the 4.

Sorry - I forgot to welcome you to English Forums in my earlier post. Welcome!

Thanks for your welcome.

I don't agree with you.I think the answer is either A or C.

the new president is reported () china after he takes office in the capital
a,to visit
b,to have visited
c,to be visiting
d,visiting

A doesn't work grammatically.

Thanks dimsumexpress and GG .

Sorry, that's my fault to understand.
GG , could you please explain it in details? And why A isn't appropriate?

Thanks a lot!

Before GG has a chance to reply, I'd break down the sentence as follows:

the new president is reported () china after he takes office in the c

Will the explanation remain the same if I change the verb as:
The new president is expected to visit China after he takes office in the capital?

My approach toward "expected to visit" will be a "no".
One must take contexts into consideration, and not completely bound by strict grammar rules.
