Recognition is the ability to identify previously learned information when it is presented again. In this case, Donna is able to recognize faces that she has seen before, which indicates good recognition ability. However, she has difficulty recalling the names that match those faces, which reflects poor recall ability. Therefore, option A is the correct answer. Option B is incorrect because there is no indication that Donna is specifically good at retrieving previously learned information, and option C and D are both incorrect based on the information given.
