v1. This man is thick and jolly.
In any point of text his emotions are not shown, therefore this answer is incorrect.
2. This man is a crabby person.
Again, this context is static his actions, not his emotion, and his actions show no sign of anger.
3. This man is big and strong.
"swinging a refrigerator onto his broad back and bearing it single-handedly into the house." This quote from the text states his strength. the first line also states his strength. But let's continue reading the choices.
4. This man is reckless and foolish.
Logically, we don't know if he is reckless and foolish.
