对立观点式的三种模板：
1. 人们往往看到b的明显优点而忽视了它的缺点，同时a的内在优势没有被重视。
第一段：to choose a or to choose b is something of a dilemma to the public because they sometimes are confused by the seemingly good qualities of b while neglect the genuinely good aspects of a.
第二段：[for b, people are often driven to believe that / it is quite easy for common people to choose b because of the obvious reason that] ____________. (as a proverb says, "everything has two sides".) although b does have its seemingly profound advantages, in the meantime [there lie [harmful characteristics/ intrinsic drawbacks] in it such as ____________ / it can be achieved only conditionally because____________] . some [people/experts] [maintain/warn] that____________. however, it is often overlooked [by the public/most people]. (therefore we have no complete evidence to suggest that b is always better than a.)
第三段： unfortunately, the innate quality of a is often underestimated.
或：what is more, if you notice the invisible benefits of choosing a, you can understand a more deeply. here i would explain a few of the most important reasons for choosing a. 第一点原因。第二点原因。第三点原因。(列举原因的句式见最后的"通用句型")
第四段：therefore from what we have discussed, we may safely come to the conclusion that choosing aaa is a rather wise decision.
2. 选a还是选b的确是一个热门话题，我们来研究一下，a比b至少有三大优势：1，2，3
第一段：there is no denying the fact that ____________(whether it is better to choose a or b) is a popular topic which is much talked about [not only by ____________, but also by ____________/by people across the world/ in a modern society].
或：there is no denying the fact that ____________(whether it is better to choose a or b) is a popular topic which has caused heated debate over a long period of time (because it affects everybody in his or her daily lives).
或：in a modern society, people are always faced with the dilemma of whether to choose a or b. this problem is a much-debated one in that it affects everybody in his or her daily lives.
或：(如果是针对某一事件的题目，不是什么popular topic)if ____________(it is announced that a new movie theater may be built ____________), i will not be surprised to see ____________ (whether it is better to choose a or b) become a popular topic which is much talked about not only by ____________, but also by ____________. although it seems that [sometimes we can not tell which one outweigh the other between a and b / they normally coexist peacefully], they deserve some close examination. [if three criteria were taken into account in comparing these two, i would prefer a. / as far as i am concerned, i vote for the latter]. there are no less than three advantages in a as rendered below
第二段 第一点原因。第二点原因。第三点原因。
第三段 In conclusion, (it must be explained that these three reasons sometimes intertwine to form an organic whole and thus become more persuasive than any one of them.) Only these three reasons are enough to make a person draw the conclusion that ____________ , not to mention there are more.
