Step 3: The question provides ㄱ, ㄷ, ㅇ, ㅌ.
Step 4: The missing 10 consonants to fill the blanks (a) to (j) are: ㄴ, ㄹ, ㅁ, ㅂ, ㅅ, ㅈ, ㅊ, ㅋ, ㅍ, ㅎ. (The question states order does not matter, but providing them in the standard dictionary order is the best practice).

Detailed Solution:
(i) The question asks "Is Kumar British?". The answer says "___, I am Indian." Therefore, the blank must be "No" (아니요). Correct: (b) 아니요.
(ii) The question asks "Is Chandrika a teacher?". The answer says "Yes, I am a ______." Therefore, the blank must be "teacher" (선생님). Correct: (b) 선생님.

(v) "Please give me one cup of black tea." The counter for cups/glasses is 잔 (jan). Correct: (c) 잔.

Detailed Solution:

(b) x Incorrect: Q: "Welcome" (어서 오세요). A: "Goodbye (to someone leaving)" (안녕히 가세요). This is incoherent. A natural response to "Welcome" is "Hello" (안녕하세요).
(c) x Incorrect: Q: "Thank you" (감사합니다). A: "Please give me an apple?" (사과 주세요?). This is incoherent. A response to "Thank you" should be "You're welcome" (아니에요 / 천만에요).

Detailed Solution:
Step 1: The grammar rule for polite requests/commands is to drop the dictionary '다'. If the verb stem ends in a vowel, add -세요. If it ends in a consonant (batchim), add -으세요.
Step 2: (a) 가다 (to go) -> stem '가' ends in a vowel. Add -세요 -> 가세요.
Step 3: (b) 읽다 (to read) -> stem '읽' ends in a consonant. Add -으세요 -> 읽으세요.
Step 4: (c) 주다 (to give) -> stem '주' ends in a vowel. Add -세요 -> 주세요.
Step 5: (d) 먹다 (to eat) -> stem '먹' ends in a consonant. Following the basic grammar rule, it becomes 먹으세요. *(Note: The honorific vocabulary for eating is actually 드세요 or 잡수세요, but when strictly applying the basic -으세요 rule as requested, 먹으세요 is expected here).*
Step 6: (e) 오다 (to come) -> stem '오' ends in a vowel. Add -세요 -> 오세요.
