长难句解析
It's a day of critical court hearings for Virginia Giuffre and prince Andrew1 with his lawyers set to argue in New York that her civil lawsuit alleging sexual assault should be thrown out2.
解:主句1+状语2
析：主句中，“it”为形式主语，真正的主语为“Virginia Giuffre and prince Andrew”，其后“with his lawyers set to argue in New York...should be thrown out”作状语，其中包含由“that”引导的宾语从句“that her civil lawsuit alleging sexual assault should be thrown out”，从句的主语为“ her civil lawsuit alleging sexual assault”。
