长难句解析

Were Alabama’s law to come into force, the price would be paid by women too poor or browbeaten to travel to where abortions are legal.

如果阿拉巴马州的堕胎法案生效，付出代价将会是女性，她们会因为太拮据或者被恐吓而无法去堕胎合法的地方。

开头是虚拟语气的倒装，省略了 if 同时把 were 提到了句首，补全后的正常语序应该为：if Alabama’s law were to come into force, the price would be paid by women... 因为是对将来情况的虚拟，所以用 were to do。逗号后句子主语是 the price，后接被动语态 would be paid by women，紧接着 too...to... 的结构做后置定语修饰 women，结尾处由 where 引导宾语从句指明 travel 的地方。

一句话总结新闻

《经济学人》讲述的是美国阿拉巴马州新出台了最严苛的的堕胎禁令，禁令规定强奸或乱伦成孕的情况不能被豁免，且实施堕胎手术被判罪的医生会被判处最高 99 年的监禁。
