C Correct answer
Explanation

The phrase 'Give me the strength to bear it all' uses the definite article 'the' with 'strength' because it refers to specific strength needed for this particular situation. This is a common idiomatic expression where 'the strength' means 'the particular strength required.' Using 'a strength' would sound unnatural and change the meaning to imply multiple types of strength.
