Yesterday when I tried to add new content to this thread, I failed.
The system told me there was something inappropriate in it.
At last, I found out it was "when everything" that caused the problem.
So I told the administrator and now it's been solved.

Ah, I see. So you typed e*erything.

opposition既可以是[U]，也可以是[C]
作“反对”讲时，是[U]，比如：
★There is a lot of opposition to the use of non-human animals in psychological research. The truth is that animals are so similar to us genetically and so convenient to use that we would be foolish not to carry out such investigations.
★we anticipate meeting a lot of opposition to our plan  

作“反对dang，反对派”讲时，是[C]，比如：
★Political Oppositions in Western Democracies

同意minori的意见。
PS：既然句首用的是some，后面应该使用复数形式。
FYI→the prime ministers of some countries
