Make three inferences about General Zaroff. Provide an example from the text for each to explain how you know this.
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Despite the barbaric intent of General Zaroff's desire to hunt human beings, he still displays a sense of honor and chivalry that he must have maintained from his military days. When he announces that he plans to hunt Rainsford that night, Rainsford wonders what he can expect if the impossible happens--if he wins.

His clothes essentially depict him as an aristocrat, someone of a higher social class than Rainsford.  He is very distinguished looking; we assume he might be Russian because of Ivan who is a Cossack (like a Russian cavalryman).

General Zaroff is so skilled at hunting that he no longer finds enjoyment in hunting simple game like deer or ducks because he finds it too easy. He has been hunting for an extensive amount of time and he likes the challenge of hunting game without instinct but with reason. Rainsford is also a very smart and skilled hunter which interests General Zaroff for some exciting game.  

General Zaroff began hunting humans because he became bored with hunting animals. He claimed that he lost interest in hunting animals, and he eventually realized that the reason was that he had become such a great hunter that the animals never eluded him.  So as he found that hunting animals meant no challenge to him anymore, he interested in hunting humans.
