This could be a double definition.

'what's inside' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'pleases' is the second definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with human feelings as well as being verbs in their -s form.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for contents that I've seen before include "list of ingredients" , "What's inside" , "Satisfies the list of chapters" , "constituents" , "All that's contained" .)
