Maybe a native can clarify, but I assume this is one of those words, like nature where it is always "The Nature". This is done for certain words that are abstract.
Yep, I think it's that.
Also, it isn't only in Norwegian, in French per exemple we'll say l'hiver ( the winter ), because sayinf only Hiver ( winter ) would sounds like someone called Hiver is comming.
For added evidence, pay attention to the other exercises -- they all use the bestemt form (although, interestingly, when it's a Norwegian to English exercise, it's marked as wrong if you don't include a "the" in the English translation).

Posting the question for a third time since it hasn't been answered yet: Why is "Vinter kommer" not correct?
