    Explanation
    'Little' carries a negative connotation and means hardly any or negligible. 'A little' carries a positive connotation and means 'some'. Since second part of the sentence mentions that 'fundamental values and cultural norms remain largely unquest ioned', it can be concluded that something negative is being talked about. Thus, there would be no option for free and open inquiry.
