本句的主干是Alessandro Acquisti has run tests。Privacy economist和Alessandro Acquisti互為同位語(yǔ)；that引導(dǎo)的是tests的定語(yǔ)從句；people will surrender personal information like Social Security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful 50-cents-off coupon為reveal的賓語(yǔ)從句，其中l(wèi)ike Social Security numbers為personal information的后置定語(yǔ)，to get their hands on a pitiful 50-cents-off coupon為目的狀語(yǔ)。run此處的意思是“運(yùn)營(yíng)”。

a series of的意思是“一系列”。如：

The incident sparked off a series of events. 該事件引發(fā)出一連串事。

surrender的意思是“放棄，交出”。如：

He surrendered his gun to the police. 他向警察交出了槍。

get one's hands on sth.的意思是“得到某物，找到某物”。如：
