Answer:
1)The begger Amir meets on the street is a former university professor that once taught his mother.
2) He tells Amir that his mother enjoys eating Almond cake with honey tea.
Step-by-step explanation:
Amir returned back to Kabul after a very long time he was dismayed at what he saw, the whole street was littered with beggars and rumbles, most of the trees have been cut down to serve as a source of fuel during the winter.
A patrol van with Taliban armed men passes by, Amir looks at them sternly, he was then warned by Farid to stop as these men can result to violence at the slightest provocation. An old begger by his side nodded in agreement, Amir spoke with the begger and found out that he was a former university lecturer who knew his mother very well. Amir asked him lots of questions, he soon discovered that his mother loves taking almond cake with honey tea.
