An / a
Explanation
An/A' is used as an indefinite article for a thing or person when the reader doesn't know which one we are referring to out of many nouns. It states the random nature of the subject.
'The' is used as a definite article for a thing or person when the reader knows which one we are exactly referring to. It states the specific nature of the subject.
Option C is correct as 'A' as an article suits the blank as 'a post and a shop' implies any post office and any shop
that is random in nature
. 'A' is
used with singular countable noun.
Option A is incorrect because 'Some
' used in the first blank doesn't suit the meaning of the sentence. Option B is incorrect as 'any shop'
doesn't suit the meaning of the sentence.
Option D is incorrect as 'an post office' is grammatically incorrect as 'An' is
used with a word having a vowel sound.

In the FIRST Blank, article "a" will be used as the sentence is referring to something general.
In the second blank, article "the" will be used because the speaker is mentioning the 'weather' of a specific day.
In the third blank, "no article" or zero article will be used because no article is used before the name of subjects and here literature has been used generally, not specifying literature of any particular realm, region, culture.
Fill in the blanks with the most appropriate words with the help of the hint in the brackets:
Soon our team scored ______ goal and won ______ game. (non-specific goal and a specific game)

EXPLANATION

There are two types of articles:
DEFINITE ARTICLE (THE) : Article 'the' is used to refer to a DEFINITE thing or person.
INDEFINITE ARTICLE(A/AN): Article 'a/an' is used to refer to a thing or person in general. For instance: man, door etc.
Article 'a' is used with consonant sounds whereas article 'an' is used with vowel sounds.
In the FIRST Blank, article "a" will be used as the goal is 'not specific'.
In the SECOND blank, the game is 'specific' , hence, article "the" will be used.
