He was 103.诺贝尔奖得主、理论物理学家杨振宁周六于北京去世，享年103岁。杨振宁对数学之美有着敏锐的感知，让他得以窥见大自然规律中令人惊叹的不规则之处。Yang left China for the US in 1946 to attend the University of Chicago on a scholarship, earning his doctorate two years later. Among the faculty who praised Yang at Chicago was Nobel laureate Enrico Fermi, who recommended him to Julius Robert Oppenheimer, the father of the atomic bomb, who was at the time director of the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton University.1946年，杨振宁获得奖学金，前往美国芝加哥大学求学，两年后获得博士学位。求学期间，曾获诺贝尔奖的恩里科·费米等教授对杨振宁赞誉有加，费米还把他推荐给了“原子弹之父”罗伯特·奥本海默，奥本海默时任普林斯顿大学高等研究院院长。At Oppenheimer’s invitation, Yang joined the institute and worked there for 17 years, crossing paths with scientists such as Albert Einstein and Freeman Dyson. 应奥本海默邀请，杨振宁进入高等研究院工作，在那里工作了17年，与阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦、弗里曼·戴森等科学家结识共事。To facilitate his work in the US, Yang became an American citizen in 1964. He said the decision was “painful” and one he came to regret, because his father, even on his deathbed, refused to forgive him.为了便于在美国开展工作，杨振宁于1964年成为美国公民。他曾表示，这一决定令他“痛苦”，并对此感到后悔，因为他的父亲在临终前都不肯原谅他。Yang reversed that decision in 2015, when he renounced his US citizenship and became a citizen of China.2015年，杨振宁放弃了美国国籍，成为一名中国公民。He said the blood in his veins was his father’s and “belonged to the Chinese culture.”他说，身体里的血液是父亲的血液，“是属于中华文化的。”Yang married his first wife, Chih Li Tu, in 1950, with whom he had three children. After her passing in 2003, he married Weng Fan, over 50 years his junior, whom he met in 1995 and called his "final blessing from God."1950年，杨振宁与第一任妻子杜致礼结婚，并育有三个孩子。2003年杜致礼去世后，杨振宁与年轻50余岁的翁帆结婚。杨振宁与翁帆在1995年相识，他称翁帆是“上帝给我的最后一份礼物”。📝重点词汇与表达theoretical physicist 理论物理学家mathematical /ˌmæθəˈmætɪkl/ adj. 数学的；数学方面的aesthetics /esˈθetɪks/ n.（审）美学kink /kɪŋk/ n.（直线物体上的）弯，结weave /wiːv/ n. 织（布）；编织scholarship /ˈskɑːlərʃɪp/ n. 奖学金doctorate /ˈdɑːktərət/ n. 博士学位recommend sb. to 推荐，举荐某人atomic bomb 原子弹cross paths 彼此遇到；产生交集on one's deathbed 临终之际reverse /rɪˈvɜːrs/ v. 颠倒；彻底转变renounce /rɪˈnaʊns/ v. 声明放弃；宣布放弃vein /veɪn/ n. 静脉blessing /ˈblesɪŋ/ n. 上帝的恩宠；祝福；祝颂主播：周邦琴Albert●没有名牌大学背景，没有英语专业背景●没有国外留学经历，没有英语生活环境●22岁成为500强公司全球员工英文讲师●24岁自学成为同声传译●25岁为瑞士联邦总统翻译前往小宇宙评论区与主播互动
