Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Correct answer: Influx — an arrival or entry of large numbers of people or things.
Why this is opposite: "Exodus" means a mass departure from a place; "Influx" means a mass arrival into a place. They describe opposite directions of movement.
Why "Home-coming" is not the best choice: it denotes returning home and is narrower in meaning; it does not necessarily convey a large-scale arrival.
Why "Return" is not the best choice: it means to come back but does not emphasize the arrival of many people as "influx" does.
Why "Restoration" is incorrect: it refers to bringing something back to a former condition, not to movement into or out of a place.
