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

Explanation: The word<u> "zealous"</u> is an adjective and <u>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. </u>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".
