This question is incomplete because the options were not given; here is the complete question:

Which lines from Ovid’s "Pyramus and Thisbe" contain an example of characterization?

A. Ringed by the tall brick walls Semíramis had built—so we are told.

B. If you searched all the East, you'd find no girl with greater charm than Thisbe.

C. The wall their houses shared had one thin crack, which formed when they were built and then was left

D. When first light had banished night's bright star-fires from the sky and sun had left the brine-soaked meadows dry

The answer to this question is B. "If you searched all the East, you'd find no girl with greater charm than Thisbe"

Explanation:

In literature, characterization involves using details to explain the traits of characters, this includes their personality, physical traits, qualities, among others. This literary device can be seen in the excerpt "If you searched all the East, you'd find no girl with greater charm than Thisbe" because, in this, the narrator describes Thisbe, who is one main character of the story. Also, the narrator focuses on one important trait of this character, which is her greater charm that according to the narrator could only be found in Thisbe.

The correct answer is A. It is his turn to learn the family game, like his father and grandfather did years before him.

Explanation

The previous text talks about dominoes, a traditional game for Javier's family. In the text, his grandfather invites him to learn how to play dominoes and play with him and his father. In the beginning, Javier is not entirely convinced, but later he understands that this tradition is very important for his family, and he realizes that the empty chair was the space that had always been for a new member of the family to learn to play as his father and grandfather. As the author expresses saying "The empty chair beside mi father convinced me to take part". According to the above, the correct answer is A. It is his turn to learn the family game, like his father and grandfather did years before him.
