Solution
Answer: Option A
Solution:
In the first blank, article "a" will be used as it is written 'American Polar Traveller' and it is a general noun.In the second blank, article "the" will be used because article "the" is used when with ordinals such as "first", "second" etc and it is given that 'he was () first to reach.'
Similarly, 'North Pole' is a proper noun (something unique). Therefore, in the third blank, article "the" will be used.
