A.
a, an, an
B.
a, the, the
Answer
C.
a, a, a
D.
an, the, a

Answer: Option B

Solution

Answer: Option B
Solution:
We are referring to a small supermarket in general. So, we need to use an indefinite article here. Since 'small' begins with a consonant sound, we should use 'a'.
'The' is used before specific or unique places/things. Here, 'end' is specific because there is only one end and 'street' is the specific one on which the speaker lives.
