The correct answer to the question: What is the meaning of the excerpt, would be, D: Zeitoun´s business is thriving with the rebuilding of New Orleans.

Explanation:

This can be explained by taking into account several portions of the excerpt, and which hint to this answer. Number one, when they mention the arrival of money from government programs for rebuilding, money, that through the excerpt can be inferred, came into this company, as they were the ones rebuilding a big chunk of the houses that had been destroyed by the hurricane. The second hint, and the biggest one, that points to this answer, comes when the excerpt says: "But now things are moving. The city is rising again." This statement shows that not only is homelife back on track for those affected by the storm, but business as well, and this has been thanks to the increase of business in homebuilding, done by Zeitoun A. Painting Contractor LLC. The third hint comes when the company itself announces that they have been restoring 114 houses, and even bringing them to a better situation than they were before.
