　　今天的句子：

　　A sweeping new law in California will require millions of businesses to tell consumers what data they have collected about them and, if asked, to delete it. The effect of this law, which is being copied in nearly two dozen other states, could therefore be enormous. But that’s only if people assert their new rights, which is a big “if” considering that relatively few have taken advantage of a similar privacy law in Europe.

　　思考题：

　　It is suggested in the text that the new privacy law__.

　　A.will doubtless shake the internet business

　　B.may not have enormous or lasting effects

　　C.may not be as effective as a similar EU law

　　D.forbid online vendors to use consumers data

　　句子解析：

　　第一句：

　　A sweeping new law in California(主语)// will require millions of businesses (动词+宾语)to tell consumers what data they have collected (宾补)about them(定语) and, if asked(状语), to delete it(宾补).

　　注意：

　　if asked(状语)=If they are asked by consumers

　　以后你们看到：

　　if anything= if there is anything...

　　状语从句常有省略

　　to tell 和to delete 并列

　　参考译文：加州一项影响广泛的新法律将要求数以百万计的企业告知消费者自己收集了哪些数据，且如果消费者要求，应删除这些数据。

　　第二句：

　　The effect of this law, which is being copied in nearly two dozen other states(定语), could therefore be enormous.

　　参考译文：因此，这项正被近20多个州效仿的法律可能影响极大。

　　第三句：

　　But that’s only if people assert their new rights, which is a big “if” (定语从句)considering(考虑到) that relatively few have taken advantage of a similar privacy law in Europe.

　　参考译文：但是只有当人们主张新权利时才会这样;考虑到在欧洲，相对较少的人使用了一部类似的隐私保护法，这是一个(不确定性)很大的“if(如果，只有，当)”。

　　思考题解析：

　　It is suggested in the text that the new privacy law__.

　　A. will doubtless shake the internet business

　　(无疑会动摇互联网商业)

　　A选项错误。

　　B. may not have enormous or lasting effects

　　(可能不会有巨大或持续性影响)

　　B选项正确。

　　直接对应最后一句! 不懂得话，听一下语音解释。

　　C. may not be as effective as a similar EU law

　　(可能没有欧洲一项相似的法律有效)

　　这里没有和欧洲法律有效性的比较，

　　而B选项在文中的最后一句是有依据的，所以是最佳!

　　除非没有B，我们勉强可以选C。

　　D. forbid online vendors to use consumers data

　　(禁止线上商贩使用消费者数据)

　　文章中没有提到，这个内容，排除!
