What does Rahim Khan want Amir to do?

• A. To forget the past and return to America.
• B. To come to Peshawar to take responsibility for betrayals and to bring Sohrab.
• C. To help rebuild Kabul.
• D. To marry a local girl.

Answer: (B)

The question tests understanding of Amir’s moral turning point and what Rahim Khan asks him to do to seek redemption. Rahim Khan calls Amir to come to Peshawar to take responsibility for the betrayals of the past—specifically Amir’s failure to defend Hassan—and to bring Hassan’s son, Sohrab, into Amir’s life. This mission is about action that atones for guilt: stepping up, facing danger, and providing a father figure for Sohrab. It marks a shift from avoiding the past to actively choosing to repair what was broken.

The other ideas don’t fit because Rahim Khan isn’t urging Amir to forget the past and return to America, nor to focus on rebuilding Kabul in a broad sense, nor to marry someone. His instruction is concrete and personal: travel to Peshawar, own the past, and rescue Sohrab.
