【Step 1】找谓语
Surely it should be obvious to the dimmest executive that trust, that most valuable of economic assets, is easily destroyed and hugely expensive to restore—and that few things are more likely to destroy trust than a company letting sensitive personal data get into the wrong hands.
·动词 should be 语态
·动词 is destroyed 被动+时态：一般现在时
·动词 are likely to destroy 时态：一般现在时
【Step 2】断句
Surely it should be obvious to the dimmest executive [that trust, that most valuable of economic assets, is easily destroyed and hugely expensive to restore]—and [that few things are more likely to destroy trust than a company letting sensitive personal data get into the wrong hands].
解析：本句是一个形式主语的句子，真正的主语是后面and连接的两个that从句。
判断方法：1.形式：1）句首有it作主语+2）划完主干后剩余to do sth| doing sth|从句中的一种<剩余2个that引导的从句>；2.代入翻译通顺即可
重点成分标注：
主语：在句首|谓语前
宾语：在动词|介词后
表语：在系动词后
主语：蓝色；谓语：红色；表语：绿色；宾语：紫色；宾补：深蓝
主句：
Surely it should be obvious to the dimmest executive
其中，
1.to the dimmest executive——介宾结构作状语<介宾结构常作成分：1.作定语：在名词|代词后；2.作状语：在句首|句尾|主谓之间——通常只要不作定语，就可以认为作状语>。
真正的主语：that引导的从句1：
[that trust, that most valuable of economic assets, is easily destroyed and hugely expensive to restore]真正的主语：that引导的从句2：
and [that few things are more likely to destroy trust than a company letting sensitive personal data get into the wrong hands].其中，
1. more...than a company letting sensitive personal data get into the wrong hands——比较状语；
2.letting sensitive personal data get into the wrong hands——非谓语短语作后置定语修饰名词a company【判断方法：1.位置：在名词|代词后；2.代入翻译通顺即可<让敏感个人数据落入别有用心的人手中的企业>】<其中letting和company之间是主动关系>。
3.letting结构中成分划分如下：letting sensitive personal dataget into the wrong hands <let sb do sth让某人做某事>。
【Step 3】翻译
Surely it should be obvious to the dimmest executive [that trust, that most valuable of economic assets, is easily destroyed and hugely expensive to restore]—and [that few things are more likely to destroy trust than a company letting sensitive personal data get into the wrong hands].
主句：
英文：Surely it should be obvious to the dimmest executive
中文：无疑的是，它是很明显的对于最愚笨的管理人员而言。
改译：无疑的是，对最愚笨的管理人员而言，它是很明显的。
真正的主语：that引导的从句1：
英文：that trust, that most valuable of economic assets, is easily destroyed and hugely expensive to restore
真正的主语：that引导的从句2：
英文：and [that few things are more likely to destroy trust than a company letting sensitive personal data get into the wrong hands].中文：而且，没有什么事情更能破坏信任，与企业让个人敏感信息落入别有用心的人手中相比。
改译：而且，没有什么事情比企业任由个人敏感信息落入别有用心的人手中更能破坏信任的了。
无疑的是，对最愚笨的管理人员而言，它是很明显的：信任作为最具价值的经济资产，很容易受到破坏，且修复起来代价高昂；而且，没有什么事情比企业任由个人敏感信息落入别有用心的人手中更能破坏信任的了。
翻译思考：
1.“它即it”——指代的是后面标红的内容，即2个that引导的从句——由于从句内容过多，所以如果还原真正主语的位置，会导致语序大量调整，很容易出现翻译错误，故只能考虑尽量保持原语序。
2.某件事于某人而言很明显——即某人应清楚知道某事。
1.dim adj.愚钝的、迟钝的
2.executive n.管理人员
3.expensive adj.昂贵的、高价的
4.get into the wrong hands v.落入别有用心的人手中
1.personal data n.个人数据|信息
2.economic asset n.经济资产
