Difference in analysis: In “English 1,” “requiring” in [2] is seen as a proposition, which takes “such person to appear” in [3] as an argument – like saying “requiring that such person appear.” In “English 2,” “requiring such person” in [2] is seen as a proposition, which takes “to appear” in [3] as an argument – like saying “obliging such person to appear.” (There’s no difference in how [2] and [3] are parsed between “Japanese 1” and “Japanese 2.”)

Reason: Such equivalent parsings are typical of predicates in a relation of subordination with a shared argument.
