答案及解析
1.most influential
考点：形容词最高级。
解析：“one of the + 形容词最高级 + 可数名词复数” 为固定结构，表 “最…… 之一”，influence 的形容词形式为 influential，其最高级为 most influential，符合 “20 世纪最有影响力的科学家之一” 的语境。
2.where
考点：定语从句关系副词。
解析：先行词为“the Tsinghua campus”（地点），从句 “his father was a math professor” 不缺主宾表，需用关系副词 where 引导定语从句，在从句中作地点状语。
3.subsequently
考点：副词修饰动词。
解析：此处需修饰动词“held”（担任），故将形容词 subsequent 转化为副词 subsequently，意为 “随后，接着”，符合 “赴美深造后接着担任教职” 的逻辑。
4.were awarded
考点：被动语态 + 主谓一致。
解析：主语“Yang and Lee Tsung-Dao” 与 “award”（授予）为被动关系，且动作发生在 1957 年（过去），主语为复数，故用一般过去时被动语态 were awarded，表 “被授予诺贝尔奖”。
5.developed
考点：过去分词作定语。
解析：“The Yang–Mills theory” 与 “develop”（研发）为被动关系，用过去分词 developed 作后置定语，相当于定语从句 “which was developed”，表 “与 Robert Mills 共同研发的理论”。
6.himself
考点：反身代词。
解析：“devote oneself to...” 为固定短语，意为 “致力于……”，主语为 Yang，故用反身代词 himself，表 “他致力于推动中国科学发展”。
7.a
考点：不定冠词。
解析：泛指“一位重要倡导者”，“key” 以辅音音素开头，用不定冠词 a，符合 “成为中美学术交流的重要倡导者” 的语境。
8.scholars
考点：名词复数。
解析：根据语境，有多名“中国学者〞，故scholar 用复数形式scholars，“支持中国学者出国留学”。
9.impacting
考点：现在分词作结果状语。
解析：“co-founded...“与 “impact”（影响）为主动关系，用现在分词 impacting 作结果状语，表 “创办研究院带来的自然结果 —— 显著影响高等教育改革”。
10.as
考点：介词固定搭配。
解析：“stand as” 意为 “作为…… 而存在”，符合 “杨振宁的一生作为人类历史中永恒的篇章而存在” 的语义。排除 for 的原因：“stand for” 意为 “代表；象征；支持”，侧重 “符号、事物所代表的抽象意义”（如 “The red cross stands for charity”），而句中 “一生” 与 “篇章” 是 “作为…… 的具体身份” 的关系，并非 “代表”，故 for 不符合语义逻辑，应排除。
