Question

gloat v.心满意足 Gloat seems have come from a Germanic word meaning "to stare." Somehow people may have gotten the sense that whoever was doing the staring was also taking a deep and unwholesome pleasure in whatever he or she was seeing. Think about people staring and pointing and laughing. Sometimes you gloat when someone has rejected the help you have offered. If your little sister won't listen to your advice on how to improve her essay and then comes home with a bad grade, it will be very hard not to gloat and say "I told you so." 1[VERB 动词]洋洋得意；幸灾乐祸 If someone is gloating, they are showing pleasure at their own success or at other people's failure in an arrogant and unpleasant way.   [V over/about n]  [Also V]  [disapproval]Anti-abortionists are gloating over the court's decision...法庭的判决让反堕胎主义者非常得意。This is nothing to gloat about.这没什么好幸灾乐祸的。
