Arts Intensive offers students time to focus on a single, project-based arts class with artists. The courses provide the unique opportunity to create in small class sizes outside of the pressures of the regular academic year.
About the Course
The Arts Intensive offers three weeks of instruction in September, two units of credit and a creative community to last a lifetime! Classes meet daily, Monday through Friday. All courses are hands-on and project-based, designed to dive deep into a particular art form.
Financial Aid
Students are automatically considered for financial support with the program fee unless students choose to opt out by emailing artsintensive@stanford.edu. Financial need will have absolutely no impact on selection of students for a course.
Costs Not Covered by Program Fee
Phone and network activation fees, course materials other than the supplied books, and personal expenses are also student responsibilities. While all course-required group trips and meals are covered, incidentals such as souvenirs from field trips would be considered personal expenses.
What to Expect During the Program

In 2023 the Falcon 9 launched over a thousand tonnes of payload into orbit. The first stages of the Falcon 9 have been successfully reused after returning from space and landing themselves more than 300 times.
“Reentry” by Eric Berger, the senior space editor at Ars Technica, describes how this was achieved. The ingredients which produced the Falcon 9 were excellent engineers, a new form of government support for spaceflight, a hard-driving culture and an extraordinarily demanding boss.
The book starts with a story in 2008. SpaceX’s first rocket, the Falcon 1, was small, troublesome and uncommercial. By the time it finally reached orbit — on the fourth attempt — SpaceX had burned through almost all the money that Elon Musk, the company’s founder, had available. For the company to have a future, it needed some big government contracts, and that required a much larger launcher: the Falcon 9, which required nine of the Merlin engines that powered the Falcon 1 to be joined together.
That challenge fell to Tom Mueller, SpaceX’s first employee, who had developed the Merlin engine in the first place. His team’s efforts led to the arguably company-saving first test firing of the Falcon 9’s first stage in November 2008. “We were out there beating history, but Elon was still pissed at us,” Mr Mueller said. “Like everything else we’ve ever done, it was way slower than Elon wanted.”
Mr Berger’s book is full of stories of impressive achievements being met in such ways. It also shows clearly why people put up with such things. Mr Musk’s employees knew that he really cared about making better rockets, and that he was taking big financial risks. But they came to value his insistence on the overall goal of making a rocket that was largely reusable.
4. What is “Reentry” about?
A. The process of reusing the Falcon 9. B. Achievements made by the government.
C. The personal life of the demanding boss. D. Elements leading to the Falcon 9’s success.
5. What can we learn from paragraph 3?
A. The Falcon l was a total failure. B. The Falcon 9 was upgraded greatly.
C. The Falcon 9 cost all the company’s money. D. SpaceX has a future without government’s support.
6. What does the underlined phrase “pissed at” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. mad at B. content with C. sad about D. moved by
7. Which of the following best describes Mr Musk from the text?
A. Rude and insistent. B. Demanding and gentle.
C. Tough and persistent. D. Impatient and determined.
C
Want to know the current population of India? The internet is your best bet. Need a quick refresher on the phases of the moon? Go ahead, read a story online (or two or three). But if you really need to learn something, you're probably better off with print. Or at least that's what a lot of research now suggests.
Researchers find that people tend to read faster on screens. That's fine for checking texts and social media posts. But when screens are small, the extra scrolling needed to read a long article or book may make it harder to retain what you're reading, data now show.
That doesn't just depend on the device, however. It also depends on what you assume about the text. Naomi Baron calls this your mindset. She says one way mindset works is in anticipating how easy or hard we expect the reading to be. If we think it will be easy, we might not put in much effort.
Much of what we read on screens tends to be text messages and social media posts, which are usually easy to understand. So, “when people read on screens, they read faster,” says Alexander at the University of Maryland. “Their eyes scan the pages and the words faster than if they're reading on a piece of paper.” But when reading fast, we may not absorb all the ideas as well.
However, all experts agree on one thing: There's no going back. Digital reading is here to stay. So it pays to make the most of it. It's a good idea to do a little preparation. Baron compares reading to sports or to playing music. “Watch a pianist or an athlete. Before they run the race or play the concert, they get themselves in the zone,” she says. “It's the same thing for reading. Before you read something you really want to focus on, get in the zone. Think about what you'll be reading, and what you want to get from it.”
8. Which is NOT the possible element affecting people's reading on screens?
A. Small screens. B. Reader's mindset.
C. Simple posts. D. Reading skills.
9. What may all experts agree as for digital reading?
A. It's unavoidable. B. It's unhelpful.
C. It's unpredictable. D. It's unacceptable.
10. Why does Baron mention the pianist and the athlete?
A. To define a term. B. To support an idea.
C. To explain a concept. D. To present the background.
11. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. The Rise of Digital Reading.
B. The Benefits of Print Reading.
C. Balancing Print and Digital Reading.
D. Preparing for the Digital Reading Era.
D
Sometimes, what my seven-year-old tabby cat Ophelia wants is obvious. Crying in front of her empty food bowl at dinner time clearly indicates she’s at risk of starvation. Other times, though, her meows are a complete and total mystery.
That’s where Sergei Dreizin and Mark Boyes, computer scientists at Akvelon, a software engineering company based in Bellevue, Washington, say they can help. They are the brains behind the MeowTalk app, which aims to “give cat owners the best tools available” for interpreting their pet’s needs.
When Boyes and Dreizin were looking for data to inform their new app, they came across 2019 research that revealed cat meows contain certain shared characteristics. The study authors then built a computer program to analyze audio recordings of 21 adult cats meowing.
The MeowTalk founders used these audio recordings of tens of thousands of meows to develop their computer models, which is fueled by artificial intelligence. And it worked. 2021 study found MeowTalk can classify nine feline (猫科的) phrases with 90 percent accuracy.
The free app records your feline’s meows and translates them into a small range of phrases, such as “I’m annoyed.” and “Feed me!” Users can rate the accuracy of MeowTalk’s translations, which further improves the computer model. Launched in November 2020, the app has been downloaded over 20 million times, and Dreizin estimates that the program has analyzed over a billion meows to date. “We’re the largest depositors of meows in this galaxy,” he quips.
The app is part of an expanding suite of technologies designed to help us communicate with our furry friends. Another is FluentPet, which trains your pet to press buttons to communicate a need; for instance, a cat can learn to press a button that says the word “play”.
Cat behaviorist and communication expert Charlotte de Mouzon isn’t convinced of these products’ accuracy, but strengthening your relationship with your cat is always a wise goal. “If people play with the app, maybe they will become more attentive to their cats,” says de Mouzon, of Paris Nanterre University.
12. How can computer scientists at Akvelon help cat owners?
A. By making cats’ needs fulfilled.
B. By getting cats rid of starvation.
C. By filling the empty food bowls.
D. By solving the mysteries of cats’ meows.
13. What can be inferred from paragraph 5?
A. Users think the app very helpful.
B. Users can help to promote the app.
C. Dreizin thinks the app is the most accurate.
D. The program has analyzed billions of meows.
14. What’s Charlotte’s attitude to this kind of apps?
A. Doubtful. B. Conservative. C. Positive. D. Negative.
15. What is the purpose of the the text?
A. To comment on two apps.
B. To compare two similar apps.
C. To introduce the new technology.
D. To recommend an app to cats’ owners.

47. 阅读下面材料根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Cindy had always been my most cherished friend. In my eyes, she was an extraordinary dog full of unique charm, yet my mother labeled her a troublemaker. When I was just eleven years old, I first laid eyes on that adorably tiny pup with a mass of curly hair, and it was love at first sight.
Cindy wasn’t just cute; she was incredibly smart too. I took great delight in teaching her all sorts of nifty tricks. Whenever I placed a stick or a small piece of carrot close to her mouth and uttered the word “chew”, she’d dutifully obey. She loved going for walks with my friends and me. She danced around us as if listening to our conversations about school and clothes and movies we’d seen. I’d tell her about my friends, the boys I liked, the test I was about to take in History. Cindy would sit and stare at me as if listening to everything I told her.
Then, out of the blue, my uncle, my mother’s younger brother, found himself in a tough situation and came to stay with us. He and his wife were struggling financially after he lost his job. They slept in my room and I slept on the couch. My mom didn’t want Cindy’s curly fur all over the living room furniture, so she had to sleep in the garage. Instead of being beside my bed as usual, she was out of my aunt and uncle’s way. I resented their presence and kept Cindy outside with me as much as possible.
But one afternoon, when I went to get her from the back yard, she wasn’t there. The back gate was partly open. I looked everywhere around the neighborhood, knocking on doors and asking everyone if they’d seen her. I called her name over and over, that name which had always summoned my faithful friend. But this time, the silence was deafening.
“Sorry,” my uncle said. “I guess when I went through the gate to check something in my car, I forgot to close it completely.” I didn’t want his apology. I cried and searched.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
My uncle felt bad and offered to buy another dog to keep me company.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Then one morning, two days later, my uncle was home with Cindy in his arms.

【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“By the time it finally reached orbit — on the fourth attempt — SpaceX had burned through almost all the money that Elon Musk, the company’s founder, had available.

D
Sometimes, what my seven-year-old tabby cat Ophelia wants is obvious. Crying in front of her empty food bowl at dinner time clearly indicates she’s at risk of starvation. Other times, though, her meows are a complete and total mystery.
That’s where Sergei Dreizin and Mark Boyes, computer scientists at Akvelon, a software engineering company based in Bellevue, Washington, say they can help. They are the brains behind the MeowTalk app, which aims to “give cat owners the best tools available” for interpreting their pet’s needs.
When Boyes and Dreizin were looking for data to inform their new app, they came across 2019 research that revealed cat meows contain certain shared characteristics. The study authors then built a computer program to analyze audio recordings of 21 adult cats meowing.
The MeowTalk founders used these audio recordings of tens of thousands of meows to develop their computer models, which is fueled by artificial intelligence. And it worked. 2021 study found MeowTalk can classify nine feline (猫科的) phrases with 90 percent accuracy.
The free app records your feline’s meows and translates them into a small range of phrases, such as “I’m annoyed.” and “Feed me!” Users can rate the accuracy of MeowTalk’s translations, which further improves the computer model. Launched in November 2020, the app has been downloaded over 20 million times, and Dreizin estimates that the program has analyzed over a billion meows to date. “We’re the largest depositors of meows in this galaxy,” he quips.
The app is part of an expanding suite of technologies designed to help us communicate with our furry friends. Another is FluentPet, which trains your pet to press buttons to communicate a need; for instance, a cat can learn to press a button that says the word “play”.
Cat behaviorist and communication expert Charlotte de Mouzon isn’t convinced of these products’ accuracy, but strengthening your relationship with your cat is always a wise goal. “If people play with the app, maybe they will become more attentive to their cats,” says de Mouzon, of Paris Nanterre University.
12. How can computer scientists at Akvelon help cat owners?
A. By making cats’ needs fulfilled.
B. By getting cats rid of starvation.
C. By filling the empty food bowls.
D. By solving the mysteries of cats’ meows.
13. What can be inferred from paragraph 5?
A. Users think the app very helpful.
B. Users can help to promote the app.
C. Dreizin thinks the app is the most accurate.
D. The program has analyzed billions of meows.
14. What’s Charlotte’s attitude to this kind of apps?
A. Doubtful. B. Conservative. C. Positive. D. Negative.
15. What is the purpose of the the text?
A. To comment on two apps.
B. To compare two similar apps.
C. To introduce the new technology.
D. To recommend an app to cats’ owners.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种可以解读猫的语言,了解猫的需求,帮助猫的主人与其交流的新的应用程序,并提到了另一个相似技术的训练宠物与人类交流的程序,旨在让人们了解这种新的技术。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“They are the brains behind the MeowTalk app, which aims to “give cat owners the best tools available” for interpreting their pet’s needs.(他们是MeowTalk应用程序的幕后推手,该应用程序旨在“为猫主人提供最好的工具”,帮助他们理解宠物的需求。)”可知,Akvelon的计算机科学家们是通过帮助猫主人了解猫的需求,解开猫叫的奥秘来帮助猫主人的。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“Users can rate the accuracy of MeowTalk’s translations, which further improves the computer model.(用户可以评价MeowTalk翻译的准确性,这进一步改进了计算机模型。)”可知,用户的反馈可以帮助改进和提升这款应用程序。故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Cat behaviorist and communication expert Charlotte de Mouzon isn’t convinced of these products’ accuracy, but strengthening your relationship with your cat is always a wise goal.(猫的行为学家和交流专家Charlotte de Mouzon不相信这些产品的准确性,但加强你和你的猫的关系总是一个明智的目标。)”可知,Charlotte虽然认为应该加强猫主人和猫之间的关系,但他不相信这种应用程序,对此持怀疑态度。故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段“The app is part of an expanding suite of technologies designed to help us communicate with our furry friends. Another is FluentPet, which trains your pet to press buttons to communicate a need;(这款应用是一套不断扩展的技术的一部分,旨在帮助我们与毛茸茸的朋友交流。另一个是FluentPet,它训练你的宠物按下按钮来表达需求;)”和文章内容可知,本文主要介绍了一款能够帮助人类了解宠物需要的应用程序,以及另一个相似技术的应用程序,旨在让人们了解这种新的技术。故选C。

47. 阅读下面材料根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Cindy had always been my most cherished friend. In my eyes, she was an extraordinary dog full of unique charm, yet my mother labeled her a troublemaker. When I was just eleven years old, I first laid eyes on that adorably tiny pup with a mass of curly hair, and it was love at first sight.
Cindy wasn’t just cute; she was incredibly smart too. I took great delight in teaching her all sorts of nifty tricks. Whenever I placed a stick or a small piece of carrot close to her mouth and uttered the word “chew”, she’d dutifully obey. She loved going for walks with my friends and me. She danced around us as if listening to our conversations about school and clothes and movies we’d seen. I’d tell her about my friends, the boys I liked, the test I was about to take in History. Cindy would sit and stare at me as if listening to everything I told her.
Then, out of the blue, my uncle, my mother’s younger brother, found himself in a tough situation and came to stay with us. He and his wife were struggling financially after he lost his job. They slept in my room and I slept on the couch. My mom didn’t want Cindy’s curly fur all over the living room furniture, so she had to sleep in the garage. Instead of being beside my bed as usual, she was out of my aunt and uncle’s way. I resented their presence and kept Cindy outside with me as much as possible.
But one afternoon, when I went to get her from the back yard, she wasn’t there. The back gate was partly open. I looked everywhere around the neighborhood, knocking on doors and asking everyone if they’d seen her. I called her name over and over, that name which had always summoned my faithful friend. But this time, the silence was deafening.
“Sorry,” my uncle said. “I guess when I went through the gate to check something in my car, I forgot to close it completely.” I didn’t want his apology. I cried and searched.

My uncle felt bad and offered to buy another dog to keep me company.

【答案】 My uncle felt bad and offered to buy another dog to keep me company. I shook my head, tears streaming down my face. “Cindy isn’t replaceable,” I choked out. Seeing my pain, he sighed and promised to help search for her. The next day, he printed flyers with Cindy’s photo and knocked on doors with me. Though exhausted, his determination softened my resentment. We checked parks and alleys, calling her name until our voices grew hoarse. That night, I overheard him telling Mom, “I’ll find Cindy, no matter what.” His sincerity touched me, and for the first time, I felt we were on the same side.
Then one morning, two days later, my uncle was home with Cindy in his arms. She looked thin but wagged her tail weakly upon seeing me. “I found her near the old bakery, hiding under a box,” he explained. I rushed to hug them both, sobbing with relief. Cindy licked my cheek as if apologizing. My uncle admitted he’d barely slept, searching every corner since dawn. Mom, watching quietly, finally smiled. From that day, Cindy was allowed indoors again, and my uncle became her favorite playmate. His mistake had turned into a lesson of love and responsibility, binding us closer than ever.
