Answer

Brief Explanations:

The passage describes Hrothgar's people hacking down trees, setting accidental fires, and causing destruction to the land. Words like "hacked", "blistered", "dying", "thinned out", "killed", "sniped" all indicate a negative view of their actions as destructive and inconsiderate. There is no indication of admiration (so the first option is wrong), no sign of jealousy (second option wrong), and the description shows they are doing a lot of damage (so not weak - third option wrong).

Answer:

He thinks they are destructive and inconsiderate.
