Question

are people i don’t really think of until i get an occasional photo or formal letter like this. i wish i knew them better.
“when will you all come to visit pakistan?” thaya jaan asks, as if he’s reading my mind. “it has been too long.”
\soon, bhai jaan, we will visit,\ baba says. \we have been talking about it, but it is hard.\
that’s true too. i often hear my parents talk about visiting pakistan as a family again, but then they add that it isn’t the right time to be away from work, or that we shouldnt miss school
what has amina’s family not done in a long time?
they have not gone to school or work
they have not given gifts to friends.
they have not eaten dried dates.
they have not visited pakistan.

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze the text. The relevant sentence is "but then they add that it isn’t the right time to be away from work, or that we shouldn’t miss school" and also the context of visiting Pakistan. The option "They have not visited Pakistan" aligns with the family's discussion about visiting Pakistan (saying "we will visit" implies they haven't yet). Other options (eating dried dates, giving gifts, school/work absence) don't match the key context of visiting Pakistan.

Answer:

A. They have not visited Pakistan.
