答案 Let Freedom Ring More and more Chinese scholars choose to orientate their academic studies toward the needs of the society and the government. I would certainly defend their academic freedom as well as that of those who pursue their personal interests. Some scholars are intrinsically motivated by a profound interest in their academic studies. With insatiable curiosity and infinite enjoyment in the research work, they are liable to explore the unknown more intensively and persistently and make remarkable discoveries. Other scholars are extrinsically motivated by research grants, honors, praises and public opinions of the society and the government. With adequate material and spiritual support, they may utilize advanced equipment and make major breakthroughs in their field. Still other scholars manage to focus on areas which both arouse their interests and cater to the needs of the society and the government. With higher level of motivation, they are even more likely to succeed. As Albert Einstein put it, " By academic freedom I understand the right to search for truth and to publish and teach what one holds to be true. " The society and the government may well motivate the scholars by various means and influence their research interests, but it’s still up to the scholars to decide how to make best use of their intelligence. Once the scholars abide by the code of academic ethics and integrity, whatever researches they do would contribute to the advancement of human knowledge and benefit the human race in the long run.
