When we use "the" before a noun, it indicates that we are talking about a specific instance of that noun. In this sentence, "the" is used before "building," suggesting that there is a particular building in mind that is being referred to. Now, the word "oldest" is the superlative form of the adjective "old." We use the superlative form when we are comparing three or more things and want to indicate that one has the highest degree of a certain quality. In this sentence, we are comparing the age of buildings in the village, and we want to say that this particular building has the highest age among all the buildings in the village. Therefore, the correct completed sentence is: "This is the oldest building in our village." This implies that among all the buildings in the village, the one being referred to is the oldest.
