- meal 句意:蒂姆甚至已经承诺为这个聚会做一顿美味的大餐了。delicious美味的,形容词,后面应该加名词。meal“一餐,饭菜”,而且要注意前面有a,后面跟名词单数,make a delicious meal做美味的饭菜,故答案为meal。

解析
本题考查根据上下文选择恰当单词并正确使用其形式的能力。解题核心在于:
- 理解语境:通过信件内容把握家庭聚会的背景和情感基调;
- 词性转换:注意名词单复数、固定搭配(如make后接名词);
- 固定短语:如make preparations、make sense等常用表达;
- 逻辑关系:通过前后文暗示(如最高级the greatest)确定名词形式。
1) preparations
关键点:make后接名词复数,表示"做准备"。句中"决定举办聚会"暗示需要具体行动。
2) arrangements
关键点:固定短语make arrangements for表示"为...做安排",arrangement需用复数形式。
3) meal
关键点:a delicious提示用单数名词,meal表示"一餐的饭菜"。
4) mess
关键点:固定短语make a mess表示"弄得很乱",mess为不可数名词。
5) complaints
关键点:quiet后接名词复数,complaints表示"持续的抱怨"。
6) attempts
关键点:several修饰复数名词,attempts表示"多次尝试"。
7) sense
关键点:固定短语make sense表示"有意义",sense为不可数名词。
8) excuses
关键点:固定短语make excuses表示"找借口",excuses用复数。
9) suggestions
关键点:some修饰复数名词,suggestions表示"一些建议"。
10) contributions
关键点:the greatest修饰复数名词,contributions表示"贡献"。
