① The reason why I （admire him/like the place…） is that +从句

　　② The most important thing is that+从句

　　③ Another thing is that+从句

　　④ What I mean is that + 从句

　　⑤ What I’d like to say is that +从句

　　以上名词性从句①到③是引出个人观点或信息时的过渡句型，在口语表达中可以起到建构框架，使条理清晰层次分明的作用。而④和⑤则是用于进一步解释说明。套用实例：

　　The reason why I admire Yaoming is that he is a legend and also a great guy. The most important thing is that he is one of China’s most recognizable athletes. What I mean is， his image can be seen everywhere， he is a household name. Another thing is that Yao has also participated in many charity events during his career. What I’d like to say is that he not only donated money to relief work， but also created a foundation to help those in need.
