Solution

The correct option is A beginning

‘Inception’ means foundation or initiation. So, the meaning of this word is Option A ‘Beginning’. The context of sentence is that manager was not present at the beginning of the programme. Option B ‘Conclusion’ means the end or finish of an event. Option C ‘Demonstration’ means explanation of something how it works or is performed. Option D ‘Rejection’ means dismissing or refusing an idea. Thus, B, C and D are wrong meanings of ‘Inception’ and the correct answer is ‘Beginning’, Option A.
