1 update: "To fill someone in" is to "update" them, or "tell them the latest news" about a subject. This is what Susie is doing with this email: she is "updating" Bruno about the focus group. Example: "I'd like you to fill me in on the results of your latest research".
1 complete: To "fill in" a form is to "complete" it, but this is not the correct answer in this context.
1 choose: To "choose" is to "select" or "decide upon". This is unrelated in meaning to the expression "to fill someone in".
1 employ: To "employ" is to "hire" or "occupy". This is unrelated in meaning to the expression "to fill someone in".
2 a good level of participation: "A good level of participation" is the best choice here. In this context, "decent" means "good" or "fair". A "turnout" is the number of people who attend an event. It shares a similar meaning with "participation rate". Example: "There was a decent turnout at the party: 400 of my friends came!".
2 a polite response: We say that we make a "polite exit" when we leave a room discreetly. It is unrelated to the meaning of "a good turnout".
2 a surprising result: A "surprising result" is an unexpected outcome. This is not synonymous with a "decent turnout".
2 an interesting opinion: An "interesting opinion" is an intriguing point of view. This is not synonymous with a "decent turnout".
3 attend: To make it (to an event) is to attend or "go to" an event. Example: We made it to the concert a bit late. In her email, Susie writes that "Icarus, Luna, and Philip all made it (to the focus group)". Note, "to make it" is often used in the negative: We can't make it to the party tonight. Sorry!
3 organise: To "organise" an event is to "arrange" or "create" it. This is unrelated in meaning to the expression "to make it to an event".
3 cancel: To "cancel" is to stop or put an end to. This is unrelated in meaning to the expression "to make it to an event".
3 begin: To "begin" is to "start" or "commence". This is unrelated in meaning to the expression "to make it to an event".
4 a sample: A "cross-section" is a "sample" or "small slice" of something taken as an example. The term is used in the figurative sense here, but can also be used literally ("The doctor cut a cross-section of skin to examine"). Another example: "A wide cross-section of the population was interviewed for my survey".
4 a specific group: A "cross-section" of the population does not refer to a specific group of people, such as women or people under 25. On the contrary, when a "cross-section" of the population is taken, it generally contains people with a variety of characteristics, such as age, gender, ethnicity, occupation and income.
4 a majority: A "majority" is "most" of the population. It does not share a similar meaning with "cross-section".
4 a minority: A "minority" is "a small part" of the population. It does not share a similar meaning with "cross-section".
