네, 이 문장은 두 가지 방식으로 해석될 수 있습니다.
1. "She seems to be asking questions"은 "그녀가 질문을 할 것 같다"라고 해석될 수 있습니다. 이 경우에는 그녀가 미래에 질문을 할 것으로 보인다는 뉘앙스를 가지고 있습니다.
2. 또한, "She seems to be asking questions"은 "그녀가 지금 질문을 하고 있는 것 같다"라고 해석될 수도 있습니다. 이 경우에는 그녀가 현재 질문을 하고 있는 상황을 의미합니다.
따라서, 이 문장은 두 가지 방식으로 해석이 가능하며, 문맥에 따라 어떤 의미로 받아들일지 결정될 수 있습니다.

@hhoc2000 correct. if you wanted it to be future tense you could say something like "it seems like she's going to ask questions" or "she seems like she's going to ask questions"

@hhoc2000 "she seems" is present tense by the way, that's how I can tell she's asking question now.
