Answer:

Fallen.

Explanation:

The term "descended" means the act of falling, coming down from a higher place to a lower place. It is the act of coming down from a higher grown to a lower grown.

In H. G. Wells's "The War of the Worlds", the narrator/ speaker uses the term <em>"fall/ fallen" </em>multiple times in the given excerpt. The speaker describes the fallen mass <em>"from outer space"</em> which people thought must be another meteorite. And that was also why people did not go looking for it, for no one thought or expected it to be an alien ship.

Thus, the word is "fallen".

MrMuchimi
This sentence is messy, as well as a run-on. Here's a revised version:

"It becomes easy to gossip among the office, but remember; it is just as easy to keep it a secret!"

There is proper punctuation added to make it easier to read. It also adds personality and emotion to the sentence. Try reading the two aloud and compare them. You can make changes to it if you feel it necessary.
