Read this sentence from “the most dangerous game” by richard connell, what does the word zealous mean in these lines?

Having or showing zeal and that means with great energy or enthusiasm in pursuit of a cause or an objective. 

This is what i found “an elliptical clause is a type of dependent, or subordinate, clause that is missing a word or words. often, the missing part is a verb or verb phrase. while elliptical clauses are acceptable to use, they can sometimes cause confusion for writers and readers, especially when the sentence ends with a pronoun.” i hope this you for what your looking for. can you plz mark me brainliest?
