Question about affronter et envisager

In this exercise, we could use faire face à qqch and affronter to express face something, and what about envisager? 

Could we use this verb to express the same meaning? 

Thank you.

Bonjour ZIJUN,

"Envisager" means "to contemplate / to consider" rather than "to face something" (such as "affronter / faire face"). Take a look here: https://www.wordreference.com/fren/envisager

I hope this is helpful.

Bonne journée !
