Section Ⅲ　Using language [课时跟踪检测]　　　 Ⅰ.阅读理解 When Eugenie George heard that her friend passed a financial counseling exam, at first her heart sank. She had failed the same test weeks earlier, and she needed the qualification to advance her career. “My inner child got upset，” recalled Ms. George, a financial writer and educator from Philadelphia. But then, instead of stewing, she called her friend. “I told her I failed and admitted I was jealous，” she said. Ms. George knew that being_upfront would calm her envy, and she was surprised, when it shifted her attitude she could share her friend's happiness, and experience her own, in turn.“I congratulated her and told her she inspired me.” Finding pleasure in another person's good fortune is what social scientists call freudenfreude, a term(inspired by the German word for joy)that describes the happiness we feel when someone else succeeds, even if it doesn't directly involve us. “Freudenfreude is like social glue，” said Catherine, a professor of psychology at Ursinus College. “It makes relationships closer and more enjoyable.” Erika Weiz, an empathy researcher and postdoctoral fellow in psychology at Harvard University, said the feeling closely resembles positive empathy — the ability to experience someone else's positive emotions. A small 2024 study examined positive empathy's role in daily life and found that it stimulates kind acts, like helping others. Sharing in someone else's joy can also foster resilience (韧性), improve life satisfaction and help people cooperate during a conflict. However, freudenfreude doesn't always come easily. In zero-sum situations, your loss might really sting, making freudenfreude feel out of reach. If you were raised in a family that paired winning with self-worth, Dr. Catherine said, you might misread someone else's victory as a personal shortcoming. And factors like mental health and overall well-being can also affect your ability to participate in someone else's joy. Still, freudenfreude is worthwhile — and there are ways to encourage the feeling. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了“乐他人之幸”这一概念，即当他人成功时，我们也能感受到快乐。心理学家指出这种情感能够增进人际关系，受竞争心态等因素影响可能难以产生，但是值得培养。 1．What does the underlined phrase “being upfront” in paragraph 1 mean? A．Hiding one's true feelings. B．Honestly expressing one's emotions. C．Always escaping from reality. D．Offering practical advice immediately. 解析：选B　词义猜测题。根据第一段第三句可知，George女士告诉朋友自己失败了，还承认自己很嫉妒，她知道这样做能平息嫉妒心，由此可推断“being upfront”指的是坦诚地表达自己的情感。 2．Which of the following belongs to freudenfreude? A．You felt upset that your best friend lost a match. B．You felt happy that you defeated your opponent. C．You felt delighted that your classmate got a prize. D．You felt glad that you helped those weaker than you. 解析：选C　细节理解题。根据第二段第一句可知，从别人的好运中找到快乐被称为“乐他人之幸”，“同学得奖”属于别人的好运，为此感到高兴符合这一概念。 3．What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A．The benefits of freudenfreude. B．The reasons for freudenfreude. C．The definition of freudenfreude. D．The factors affecting freudenfreude. 解析：选A　段落大意题。根据第三段最后一句可知，分享别人的快乐也能培养韧性、提高生活满意度、帮助人们在冲突中合作，这表明本段主要讲“乐他人之幸”的好处。 4．What might the author continue talking about?
