特定单元格的顶部对齐

Question

我尝试将“教育”单元格顶部对齐，\makecell[t]但没有成功。所以我尝试将整个表格顶部对齐，然后使用，\begin{tabularx}{\linewidth}[t]但仍然没有任何变化。虽然我只需要将“教育”顶部对齐，但我也很高兴知道如何将整个表格顶部对齐。非常感谢]1

\documentclass{article}

这里不需要makecell。该列有一个X允许换行的说明符\newline：

带缩进后续行的示例：

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{array}
\usepackage{caption}% fix spacing for \caption above the table

像这样：

您应该输入第二个\makecell：\makecell[tl]{...

    \makecell[t]{Education} & \makecell[tl]{The Education level of the household head;\\
        equals 1 with level of non-educational; \\
        equals 2 with level of primary school; \\
        equals 3 with level of junior high school; \\
        equals 4 with level of high school; \\
        equals 5 with level of secondary/vocational school; \\
        equals 6 with level of college/vocational; \\
        equals 7 with level of undergraduate degree; \\
        equals 8 with level of Master's degree; \\
        equals 9 with level of PhD degree; }  \\
