The correct response that shows the gerund(s) is:
**learning, rolling**
Gerunds are verb forms that end in -ing and function as nouns. In this context, "learning" and "rolling" are gerunds. "Exciting" is not a gerund; it is an adjective, and "receiving" is also a gerund, but your prompt indicates selecting either "rolling" or "learning" with "exciting."
