Solution

The correct option is D Memorable
A red letter day is any day of special significance or opportunity. Its roots are in classical antiquity; for instance, important days are indicated in red in a calendar dating from the Roman Republic. In medieval manuscripts, initial capitals and highlighted words were written in red ink.
From the above explanation, we can understand that 'red letter' means memorable. Thus, option D is correct and the other options are not because they do not provide the appropriate information.
