Answer:

zealous --> enthusiastic

scruples --> morals

placid --> calm

palpable --> tangible

Explanation:

Synonyms are different words that present the same meaning.

"Zealous" and "enthusiastic" both refer to someone who does something in a passionate way.

"Scruple" is the attitude of someone who is concerned with "morals", that is, someone who does not want to do the wrong thing.

Both "placid" and "calm" refer to something or someone that is peaceful, tranquil.

"Palpable" and "tangible" both have the same figurative as well as literal meaning: something that is noticeable and something that can be touched, respectively.

Richard Connel (1893-1949) was an American author whose short story "The Most Dangerous Game" remains famous to this day. It has been, as a matter of fact, adapted multiple times for the big and the small screen. The plot revolves around a skilled hunter who becomes the game (the prey) of another hunter.
