educated adj.
释义：having been well taught
例句：The Economist correspondents and editors are highly educated thinkers and writers.
例① 《经济学人》记者和编辑往往毕业于英美名校，受过很好的教育，思考清晰，文笔出彩，我们就可以这样介绍他们：
The Economist correspondents and editors are highly educated thinkers and writers.
除了用 educated 形容某人接受过教育外，还可以用它来表示熟知、通晓某一方面的知识。几个月前去清华经管院听美国凯雷投资集团共同创始人、亿万富翁、慈善家 David Rubenstein 先生做分享，当他解释自己为什么把自己的财富投入到公民教育时，他说了这么一句话：
例② Americans are not particularly educated on their history.
这句话的意思其实就是：
Americans know very little about their history.
在写作时，我们经常会说“人们/大众应该......”，其实很多时候核心意思是人们缺乏某一方面的知识，应该弥补认知短板。这个时候我们就可以用 educated 了。来看两个例句：
例③ The public should be educated on the pros and cons of gene editing.
例④ In many parts of the country, people are not well educated on the dangers of HIV.
1. 翻译：人们在理财的时候，应该充分了解相关的风险。
People should be fully educated on the possible risks while conducting financial management.
（参考翻译：People should be fully educated about the dangers/risks associated with financial management.）
2. 造句练习
场景: 受教育和聪明是两回事。
造句: Never confuse being educated with being smart.
