二、名词性从句的写法
在写作中，如果我们能够把两个简单句合并为一个含有名词性从句的复合句，或者把一个简单句扩展成为含有名词性从句的复合句，对写作都是一种质
的升华。

名词性从句在写作时可采用“三步法”：
第一步：写出两个简单句。

第二步：让一个简单句作从句，要注意和另一个句子的关联性。

第三步：把两个句子合成复合句，要特别注意连接词的选择和从句的语序。

[示例]
第一步：写出两个简单句。

①He said a lot at the meeting.
②His words were very attractive.
第二步：让句①作主语从句，可转换为“他在会上所说的话”，即what he said at the meeting。

第三步：把句①转换的主语从句和句②连在一起。

What he said at the meeting was very attractive.

参考范文：
Everyone knew that Andy was a famous writer, but no one knew where she came from and whether she was born in 1961 was still a mystery. What they did know was that she was loved by poor people because she always helped whoever was in need of money. Andy was generous and helpful, but some people thought she was chasing fame. Andy said she didn’t understand why they were so narrow-minded, but it didn’t matter what others would think of her. She just wanted to do what she thought was right.
I think that is where the meaning of life lies.。
