Rainsford's response to Zaroff indicates that: he is opposed to the idea of hunting humans.

Rainsford is clearly shocked and appalled at what Zaroff is suggesting as he gasps when he realizes Zaroff's is implying that he wants to hunt humans and believes he is making a 'grisly joke'. In addition he tells General Zaroff that hunting humans is not hunting but in fact murder. These would all suggest that Rainsford is definitely opposed to the idea of hunting humans.

Answer: He is opposed to the idea of hunting humans

ANSWER IS (A)

Explanation: "I wanted the ideal animal to hunt," explained the general. "So I said: 'What are the attributes of an ideal quarry?' And the answer was, of course, 'It must have courage, cunning, and, above all, it must be able to reason.'"

Think about the character of Rainsford. Which character in the story is his foil? Whitney Ivan General Zaroff
Hatshy [7]
A foil is the near complete opposite of the main character (whichever character they want you to find a foil for).

Rainsford and Whitney were good hunting friends with numerous similar interests. They could not be foils because of how close in similarity they were. Even when they disagreed on how animals felt about being hunted, Whitney seemed open to and intrigued by Rainsford's points and way of thinking. 

Ivan is a near irrelevant character, being a mere Cossack who follows whatever General Zaroff says. He is mindless and has almost zero traits to even compare to Rainsford, let alone any traits aside from a mindless follower to begin with.

The answer would be General Zaroff. This is almost like the cliche protagonist vs antagonist foil. Both of them are hunters, but different kinds. Zaroff got bored with animals and wanted to hunt human people instead, whereas Rainsford had enjoyed the thrill of an animal hunt and thinks that the hunting of people is murder. Zaroff is more heartless and cold, a killer, if you will. Rainsford seems to think highly of actual people, and had no interest in playing Zaroff's game.
