The correct answer for the first question: The lama is looking for "The River of the Arrow" because would be option 1. "He thinks he will be purified spiritually when he finds it". This is showed in the excerpt when the lama says "By it one attains freedom from the Wheel of things", meaning he wants to be free of his sins and thinks the river is going to help him achieve it. He does not give a reference as to god being the reason he wants to find the river therefore options 2,3 and 4 are incorrect.
The correct answer for the second question: The excerpt shows that would be option 3. "Kim is eager to show the lama he does not know where the river is located". This is shown in the excerpt when he repeatedly says that he does not know the location, for example " If I knew, think you I would not cry it aloud?". Option 1, 2 and 4 are incorrect because Kim does not appear under the lama's spell, he does listen to him, and has not expressed an interest in the river's powers.
