1.B【句意】一些社会群体,尤其是农民群体,已表达了很多反对意见。
【解析】副词词义辨析题。straightforwardly“直截了当地;正直地”;notably“显著地;特别地,尤其”;virtually“事实上;实际上”;exceptionally“特殊地;例外地”。由句中关键词“some social groups一些社会群体”与“the farming community农民群体”的对应知“尤其”符合语境,故B项正确。
2.B
【句意】虽然基因本身最初是没有危害的,但是你却不知道它们将如何发展。
【解析】副词词义辨析题。initially“最初,首先;开头”;partially“部分地;偏袒地”;originally“最初,起初;本来”;ultimately“最后;根本;基本上”;fundamentally“根本地,从根本上;基础地”。由关键词“you do not know how they are going to evolve你不知道它们将如何发展”的对应可推知“initially”在这里有“最初”的意思,故B项“最初”正确。
