Explanation:

Compare source text and adaptation

Using the Media Adaptation Analysis and Source Material Adaptation knowledge points:

• In Chapter 1 of Laurence Yep's novel Dragonwings, Moon Shadow arrives in San Francisco and encounters a group of white boys throwing rocks at him and his father.
• The film adaptation of this scene visually depicts this same hostile encounter, showing the boys throwing rocks at them.
• Other details like specific historical police uniforms, women in long gowns, or horse-drawn carriages are either absent, altered, or not shared as a central narrative detail in both versions.
• Therefore, the detail found in both the story and the film is "boys throwing rocks."

• boys throwing rocks (Correct answer)
• women in long gowns
• horse-drawn carriages
