Bonjour Diane,
In English, we say "you remember the way" - note the article "the." In French, you need that article as well: "vous vous souvenez du chemin" -
"du" is the contraction of "de" + "le."
so why is it Vous vous souvenez du chemin, et pas de chemin?

Please, please please can you reduce the selections in the multiple choice questions with rappeler and se souvenir. It becomes so nit-picky. I'm sure a French person would totally understand my meaning if I were to use (or not use) de or à in the huge grouping of words in the phrases that you list.
