Answer:
I think that this quote is trying to describe that the traditions that have been passed down and used time and time again by the 'primitive' will forever be more tangible. Because when he says "the fantasy of modern times" it's almost like he is claiming that they are just ideas and wishes and wants for this more modern society and way of living, whereas, with the "lore of the primitive" these normal methods of survival have been used and proven effective over again. A good comparison to that phrase could be, "if it ain't broke don't fix it", which is essentially what I think that Anton Chekhov was trying to say.
People who opt for a simple and healthy lifestyle are often
the ones who tend to live longer and are not hampered by stress. By choosing a diet where they eat foods that
are rich in vitamins and minerals and cutting back on fast food or processed
dishes, their life expectancy has great chance of increasing. Together with a healthy attitude, people who
make this choice tend to live longer.
Answer:
Because the Summer Solstice was nearing and because Ares had them nervous and because they were fugitives.
Explanation:
They had only a few days left before the summer solstice would pass. But they were hungry so they stopped for a quick bite or two. After scraping up a few dollars they bought a burger and settled down. To their surprise, Ares came in and sat down beside them and bought them another burger. He handed them a bag of supplies, a warning and was gone. With tension and responsibility on their shoulders, they wanted to leave and get things done.
