The answer is: <em>"for his father was as strong as an ox and as stubborn as a mule."</em>  This sentence is an example of  direct characterization because it takes a <em>direct approach</em> to build the character. The author chose the <em>narator</em> to describe the qualities of one character, <em>Johann's father</em>: ' as strong as an ox and  as stubborn as a mule.' Characterization is the step by step used by the author to introduce  and describe a character.

tia_tia [17]
“Quick, Policles, quick!” he cried. “My pony is tethered behind yonder grove. A grey he is, with red trappings. Get you gone as hard as hoof will bear you, for if you are taken you will have no easy death.”
“No easy death! What mean you, Metas? Who is the fellow?”
<span>“Great Jupiter! did you not know? Where have you lived? It is Nero the Emperor! Never would he pardon what you have said about his voice. Quick, man, quick, or the guards will be at your heels!” - This was the conversation of Policles and his friend, Metas of Corinth</span>

Read these two sentences:
ozzi
The correct answer is D. however.
You want to show contrast between these two sentences, and the only word among these which can do that is <em>however. </em>The sentences are each other's opposites - even though there is an increase of eagles in the Southeast, there is still a decline in their numbers overall.
