1. When faced with…… 当面临……

(用法)常用来表达这样一种假设“遇到……，就采取……”在作文中十分常用。重复使用时，可以将face与confront, encounter, come across等替换，避免repetition.

当我们适逢惨败时，我们应该记住在一定程度上人生总是凶险异常，充斥着各色成功与失败，以及冒险。

When faced with the fiasco(惨败), we should remember that life for most people, to an extent, is precarious enough to include some degree of winning and losing, and of adventure.

2.It is presumptuous to judge……according to…… 根据……来判断……太武断

(用法)该句型几乎是ARGUMENT作文中的上宾，一出手就力量惊人，具体操作相信并不困难。这里要补充一下的是，在ISSUE中该句也可用来攻击opposite points，为避免俗套以及丰富句型，presumptuous可以用arbitrary, ridiculous, illegitimate, unpersuasive等等来替换。

(例子) 根据唱片的销量来推断出他的知名度是武断的。
