Answer: Option C

Solution (By Examveda Team)

Let's look at each blank spot individually:
* First Blank: ". . . . . . . . English cannot make..."
Here, we are talking about the English people *in general*. When we talk about a nationality in general terms, we don't use an article (a, an, or the). So, the correct choice here is "no article". It would simply be "English cannot make..."
* Second Blank: "...make . . . . . . . . good coffee"
We are referring to coffee in a general way. We are not talking about one specific coffee. Therefore, we need the article "the". So the line now read as " make the good coffee".
* Third Blank: "...leaving . . . . . . . . restaurant."
Here, we assume that she left a specific restaurant she was *in*. She is *not* leaving just any restaurant. Therefore, we use the definite article "the". The line would be "...leaving the restaurant".
Therefore, the correct option is Option C: no article, the, the.
