A quadrilateral is defined as a shape with four sides. Based on this definition, we can evaluate the choices given:

- **Choice A**: A shape with four sides. The shape has one set of parallel sides and does not have right angles.
- This is a quadrilateral.

- **Choice B**: A shape with six sides of equal length. The shape has three sets of parallel sides and does not have any right angles.
- This is not a quadrilateral (it is a hexagon).

- **Choice C**: A shape with four sides. The adjacent sides are of unequal length. The shape has two sets of parallel sides and has four right angles.
- This is also a quadrilateral (specifically, it describes a rectangle).

- **Choice D**: An open shape with four sides. The shape has two sets of parallel sides and has three right angles.
- While it has four sides, the term "open shape" suggests that it is not a closed figure, which means it is not a true quadrilateral.

In conclusion, the two choices that are quadrilaterals are:
- **Choice A**
- **Choice C**
