Answer: In these lines, the word "zealous" means enthusiastic.

Explanation: The word "zealous" is an adjective and it has been used in these lines to describe someone (more specifically, General Zaroff) as an enthusiastic person, that is to say as someone who does something with an eager enjoyment. In this case, what makes General Zaroff a zealous person is his enthusiasm for hunting. Therefore, "evil ", "accurate", "inhumane" and "unforgiving" are all incorrect options: the only correct one is "enthusiastic".
