2 不定式to look at， to talk to用法疑问
"The only people a painter should know," he used to say," are people who are beautiful, people who are an artistic pleasure to look at, and restful to talk to.
不定式to look at， to talk to在句中主语的补语吗？

以下句为例。These people are an artistic pleasure to look at. = It is an artistic pleasure to look at these people. 在后面这个句子中，it为形式主语，不定式短语为真正主语（外置主语）。你可以看出，to look at的逻辑主语为泛指的人们。these people是介词at的宾语。现在看前面的句子，to look at这个不定式中的介词at的宾语缺失，而句子的主语是不定式短语中介词at的逻辑宾语。这种不定式称为反射不定式（悬空不定式）。剑桥英语语法把这种不定式to look at分析为为名词pleasure的补足语。
同理，These people are restful to talk to. = It is restful to talk to these people. 前句的主语是不定式短语中介词to的逻辑宾语。这种不定式仍然是反射不定式（悬空不定式）。剑桥英语语法把这种不定式短语分析为表语形容词restful的补足语。

"The only people a painter should know," he used to say," are people who are beautiful, people who are an artistic pleasure to look at, and restful to talk to.
解答如下：在 people who are an artistic pleasure to look at , and restful to talk to 中，who are an artistic pleasure to look at , and restful to talk to 为关系代词who引导的定语从句修饰前面的名词people，关系代词who指代先行词people并在定语从句作主语，同时为不定式look at 的逻辑宾语，作talk to的逻辑宾语，这个叫悬空不定式，即句子主语为不定式逻辑宾语。不定式短语to look at,和不定式短语talk to 都是作状语。
为了让提问网友能更清楚了解以上结构，我把关系代词who换成一个人的名字Tom给网友转换以下句子
Tom is an artistic pleasure to look at and Tom is restful to talk to .
=Look at Tom is an artistic pleasure and to talk to Tom is restful.
=It is an artistic pleasure to look at Tom and it is restful to talk to Tom.
参考译文：看着汤姆能给人艺术上的愉悦以及和汤姆交谈能让人感觉很平静放松。
