Answer:
Nurzhan's primary motivation is:
B. He wants to repay Maya for the sacrifices she has made for him.
Step-by-step explanation:
In "My Favorite Chaperone," a short story by Jean Davies Okimoto, Maya and her family are immigrants from Kazakhstan. When her little brother Nurzhan gets in trouble at school, Maya is the one who has to translate the principal's words to their father. However, she changes things a little to protect Nurzhan. Their father is very strict, so Maya makes it sound as if the fight Nurzhan was in was not such a big deal. Because of the whole thing, Maya has to miss her favorite class.
Later in the story, Nurzhan decides to pay Maya back for her kindness. Maya has a permission slip to go to a dance at school, but she knows her strict father will not sign it. So Nurzhan is the one who asks him to let Maya go to the dance, saying that he will be there as well to watch her. His plan works, and Maya's father signs the slip. Nurzhan's motivation is to pay back the sacrifice Maya made for him when he got in trouble.
