- C.
  
  A boat ride
- D.
  
  A carousel ride
Correct Answer
A. A sled ride

Explanation
The first memory the Giver gave Jonas was a sled ride. This memory symbolizes the joy and freedom that Jonas has never experienced before in his highly controlled and emotionless society. The sled ride represents a moment of exhilaration and excitement, contrasting with Jonas' previous mundane and monotonous life. It also foreshadows the journey of self-discovery that Jonas embarks on as he starts to question and challenge the restrictive rules of his community.

  He no longer had the memory.
- D.
  
  He was ready to give Jonas all his memories right away.
Correct Answer
C. He no longer had the memory.

Explanation
After transmitting the memory, the Giver no longer had the memory. This suggests that the act of transmitting the memory involves transferring the memory from the Giver to another individual, in this case, Jonas. This implies that the Giver is left without the memory that was transmitted, indicating that the Giver sacrifices their own memories in order to pass them on to Jonas.

The fact that color is mentioned as the correct answer implies that it was a significant and memorable moment for Jonas.
