13、rquestions8 - 10,completethesentenceswiththeinformationgivenin the passage.Academic freedom refers to the right of teachers and researchers,particularlyincollegesanduniversities,toinvestigatetheirrespective fields of knowledge and express their views without fear ofrestraint or dismissal from office

14、. The right rests on the assumption thatopen and free inquiry within a teachers or researchers field of studyis essential to the pursuit of knowledge and to the performance of hisor her proper educational function. At present this right is observedgenerally in countries in which education is regarde

15、d as a means not onlyof pouring in established views but also of enlarging the existing bodyof knowledge. The concept of academic freedom implies also that ateachers employment depends primarily on the competence of teachers intheir fields rather than on irrelevant considerations such as politicalor

16、 religious beliefs or attachments. The concept and practice of academic freedom, as recognized presentlyin Western civilization, date roughly from the 17th century. Before the17th century, intellectual activities at universities were restrictedlargely by theological considerations, and opinions or c

17、onclusions thatconflicted with religious doctrines were likely to be condemned asheretical. In the late 17th century the work of such men as the Englishphilosophers John Locke and Thomas Hobbes helped pave the way for academicfreedom in the modern sense. Their writings demonstrated the need forunlim

18、ited inquiry in the sciences and for a general approach to learningunrestrained by preconceptions of any kind. In the 18th and 19th centuries,universities in Western Europe and the United States enjoyed increasingacademic freedom as acceptance of the experimental methods of the sciencesbecame more w

19、idespread and as control of institutions by religiousdenominations became less rigorous. In Britain, however, religious testsfor graduation, fellowships, and teaching positions were not abolisheduntil the late 19th century. During the second half of the 20th century academic freedom wasrecognized br

20、oadly in most Western countries. However, violations of theright increased as dictatorship emerged in various countries, notably inGermany, Italy, and Russia. Educators in Italy were forced to pledgesupport to the Fascist regime. Similar restrictions, including theteaching of racist theories in some

21、 fields, were enforced in Germanuniversities under National Socialism. Violations of academic freedomalso occurred in the United States in the 20th century. A notable examplewas the Scopes trial, held in Dayton, Tennessee, in 1925. A high schoolteacher was accused and convicted of violating a state

22、law that forbadethe teaching of the theory of evolution in the public schools. Thislegislation was abolished in 1967. In the early 1950s, largely because of congressional investigationsof communism in the U. S., many institutions of higher learning adoptedregulations requiring loyalty oaths from uni

23、versity teachers. Some ofthese oaths, insofar as they were required only of teachers, were declaredunconstitutional in some state courts. All professional associations ofteachersandadministrators,includingtheNationalEducationAssociation, the American Association of Colleges, and the AmericanAssociat

24、ion of University Professors, are opposed to special loyaltyoaths and to all violations of academic freedom. The 1960s and early 1970swere marked by protest and violence on college campuses over United Statesinvolvement in the war in Vietnam. In some places professors weredismissed or arrested for p

25、rotesting American participation in the war.This turmoil reached a tragic climax in 1970 with the killingof severalstudents during campus demonstrations. In the long run, however, thesedisturbances led to a broad recognition of the legitimate concerns ofstudents about the quality of higher education

26、, and of the responsibilityof universities, rather than the public or the government, to maintainessential academic order. By 1973, when U. S. troops were withdrawn from Vietnam, a generalgrowth in higher education was under way. Significant increase inenrollments and expansion of faculties, as well

27、 as a broadening of themakeup of both student and faculty populations, contributed to a vastenrichment of the academic curriculum, to increasing faculty control overthe content of programs, and, overall, to the enhancement of the freedomto teach and to learn in colleges and universities. Beginning i

28、n the early 1970s in the United States(and somewhat laterin other countries such as Canada and the United Kingdom, however,institutions of higher education were faced with serious financialproblems which also harmed academic freedom. For example, the rise inirregular faculty appointments, intended t

29、o save money, created a virtualunderclassofteacherslackingtheemploymentsecuritygenerallyconsidered necessary for the exercise of academic freedom. Threats to and violations of academic freedom continued in the 1980s.The U. S. government, in the name of national security, imposed severerestraints on
