The correct response that identifies the gerunds in the provided text is:

**rolling, receiving**

However, since this option is not explicitly listed, the closest correct response that includes all the gerunds is:

**learning, rolling, exciting, receiving**

Please note that "exciting" in this context is not a gerund (it's an adjective), but "learning," "rolling," and "receiving" are gerunds. If you are required to select one option as the best answer based on the provided choices, then this one fits best as it contains all the relevant terms, focusing on the potential misunderstanding about the term "exciting."
