    Question

    Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blanks.
    _____ Prime Minister of India will address _____ nation tonight.

    A.

    A; the

    B.

    The; no article

    C.

    The; the

    D.

    A; a

    Correct option is C

    The correct option to fill in the blank is (c) The; the.

    Explanation:
    We use the definite article 'the' before unique titles/posts (The Prime Minister). Similarly, 'the nation' is a specific entity referring to the citizens of the country.

    Example: The President will meet the scientists.

    Information Booster:
    'The' is used when both the speaker and listener know which specific person or thing is being talked about. Titles of high-ranking officials are always preceded by 'the'.

    So the correct answer is (c)
