A) to try to kill Ravana, the man who took Sita
B) to show Sugriva that he is a great warrior
C) to fighten Sugriva into giving him information
D) to scare away the people that were attacking him

This is from the story “Ramayana and an Illustration.” It’s also from chapter 12, “The Fight Between Sugriva and Bali”

According to the events that happened in “Ramayana and an Illustration.”, we are told that Rama is a great warrior who is well known and respected by many.

However, he was challenged by Sugriva to test his archery skills and to display his strength and to prove that he was a great warrior.

Therefore, the correct answer is option B
