Why this is the answer
The First Amendment protects five basic freedoms: speech, religion, assembly (gathering peacefully), press, and the right to petition the government (ask it to change something). You only need to name one. A simple way to remember them is that they are all about expressing yourself and your beliefs without government punishment.
