Which term means a place or event where one is greeted?

• A. Reception
• B. Recession
• C. Inception
• D. Deception

Answer: (A)

Reception is the term used for a place or event where you are greeted and welcomed. In healthcare and everyday settings, the reception area—such as a hospital front desk or a wedding reception—is where guests are welcomed, checked in, and guided. The other terms refer to different ideas: recession means an economic downturn, inception is the beginning of something, and deception means lying or misrepresentation. Because the question is looking for a term tied to a place or event where one is greeted, reception is the correct choice.
