Answer 1

The correct answer is 'cheerful'

Key Points

The phrase 'in high spirits' is an idiom.
An idiom is a group of words established by usage as having a meaning not deducible from those of the individual words.
So the idiom 'in high spirit' means 'liveliness and cheerfulness'.
The sentence given in the question would then mean 'At parties he is always cheerful'.
Hence, the correct answer is option 4.
