Question

Rita _______ into the cellar.* descended rescinded ascended intended

Answer 1

Since a cellar is an underground room in the house, usually in the basement, and meant to hoard commodities or store things like wine, likewise a depository; the correct option is the first one: "descended" which means to move downward.

Thereby, "Rita descended into the cellar"

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The correct answer is "descended." To descend means to go down. Since a cellar is located beneath a house (and is also known as the basement), Rita must decend (or go down) in order to enter the cellar. The other words would not fit: rescind means to revoke; ascend means to rise; and intend means to aim. Therefore, only "descended" works in both meaning and context.
