I cheated in a game of Scrabble and now I want to see if I can make this a real word. I think it means "something that is attempted to be passed of as genuine or authentic" like a genwenen artifact. Or if you have a better idea of what it should mean that would be great too.

acropolis
analysis
cosmopolitan
electrolysis
metropolitan
paralysis
political
psychoanalysis

Choose which word best completes the sentence.

1. Throughout Greek history, the (acropolis, electrolysis) alternately served as a fortress, a religious center, and a political hub.

2. U.S. anarchist Emma Goldman once complained that "the (political, metropolitan) arena leaves one no alternative-one must either be a dunce or a rogue."

3. The doctor recommended (paralysis, electrolysis) as a means of removing hair.

4. To appeal to the sophisticated palates of their clientele, certain (political, cosmopolitan) restaurants serve items that feature a broad range of culinary influences.

5. In the final (analysis, psychoanalysis), I hope to be judged by the friends and family I've loved and the kindnesses I've shown, not by the possessions I may have acquired.


The last 3 questions are additional questions, because I ran out of room. Thank you for your help!
