问题     The capacities of women are supposed to be greater, and their senses quicker than those of the men. They should be taught all sorts of breeding suitable both to their genius and quality. And in particular, Music and Dancing; which it would be cruelty to bar the sex of, because they are their darlings. But besides this, they should be taught languages, as particularly French and Italian; and I would venture the injury of giving a woman more tongues than one. They should, as a particular study, be taught all the graces of speech, and all the necessary air of conversation; which our common education is so defective in, that I need not expose it. They should be brought to read books, and especially history; and so to read as to make them understand the world, and be able to know and judge of things when they hear of them.
    To such whose genius would lead them to it, I would deny no sort of learning; but the chief thing, in general, is to cultivate the understandings of the sex, that they may be capable of all sorts of conversation; that their parts and judgments being improved, they may be as profitable in their conversation as they are pleasant.
选项
答案     她们尤其应该接受音乐和舞蹈方面的教育，因为她们在这两方面具有天生的艺术禀赋。如果因为她们的性别而阻碍这两方面的教育，这将是非常残酷的。除此之外，她们还应该学习语言，尤其是法语和意大利语，而且我认为女性学习多种而非一种语言有害这种论调值得商榷。作为一项特殊的学习内容，她们应该接受训练，学会谈吐时所需要的所有优雅的举止和必要的风度，而这样的素养训练正是我们大众教育非常缺乏的内容，就这一点，我无须赘述去加以揭露。另外，她们应该从小学会读书，尤其是历史，通过阅读理解世界，能够在遇事时有能力了解和做出判断。
    对那些凭天赋就可以学到这些的人，我觉得她们可以学习任何知识，但总的来说，最重要的是培养她们对性别的理解，并让她们有能力参与任何社交活动，而且让她们知道，只要她们的判断力提高，她们在社交中令人愉快的同时自身也会受益匪浅。
