Explanation:

The correct answer is option B, Notre Dame emphasizes horizontal lines, while Amiens emphasizes vertical lines.

When we see pictures (in the attachment) we can see that windows and archest on both cathedrals are the same style. Generally, cathedrals are quite similar but the biggest difference is the emphasis on the facade decor in the turns of lines.

We can see that horizontal lines on the Notre Dame cathedral are stronger, more evident, make a bigger shadow than on the Amiens cathedral. On the other side, Amiens has more ornamented vertical lines going upwards, and they are the stronger ones on the facade.
