○ nappi substitutes words for stones.
○ nappi includes gods and goddesses.
○ nappi substitutes animals for people.
○ nappi does not include supernatural events.

Explanation:

In the excerpt, Nappi's adaptation has people scooping out phrases (words) like stones and throwing them, where stones in the original myth (Deucalion and Pyrrha) were used to create people. So Nappi substitutes words for stones. Other options: no gods/goddesses mentioned, no animal - people substitution, and there are supernatural events (phrases growing into beings).

Answer:

A. Nappi substitutes words for stones
