关于as的用法及主语省略问题

Saying those two words was often the best way to survive, as was doing what she was told, and from there, Liesel walked the streets of Molching, from the poor end to the rich, picking  up and delivering the washing.

请问这部分“as was doing what she was told”在句子中的语法作用如何分析?as作连词吗?是省略了主语Liesel吗?

Saying those two words was often the best way to survive, as was doing what she was told, and from there, Liesel walked the streets of Molching, from the poor end to the rich, picking  up and delivering the washing.

as was doing what she was told,就是传统语法所说的 as 引导的定语从句。as 指代整个前文的意思,充当从句的主语,后面 was doing what she was told 是个动宾结构。

你的句子结构和下面句子结构相同。

Mary is beautiful, as is her mother. 玛丽很漂亮,就像他母亲一样。这是as引导比较分句,对前面的表语形容词beautiful作补充说明。as替代beautiful,在比较分句中作表语,分句采用了倒装结构。不倒装也可以,as her mother is.

你的句子也是这种结构,as替代the best way to survive, 在从句中作表语,从句为倒装结构,doing what she was told为动名词短语作主语。
