• overwhelmed with everything he has to do.
• upset about everything he and his family have lost in the war.
• grateful that his family is intact and has shelter
• annoyed with how much he has to pay the carpenter

Explanation:

In the excerpt from "Civil Peace", Jonathan is moving into a place with his family, and they are intact (carrying five heads, meaning all family members are alive) and have shelter (getting shutters made to move in). The other options don't fit: he's not overwhelmed with tasks, not upset about losses (they seem to be moving forward), and not annoyed about the carpenter's pay as he paid and moved in with an overjoyed family.

Answer:

grateful that his family is intact and has shelter
