Explanation:

The text shows that the female ancestors were willing to abandon the past (jettison the past, leave parents and bury children) and move on without hesitation in pursuit of an uncertain end. They didn't dwell on implications and had no time for second - thoughts or equivocation, which indicates an unsentimental nature.

Answer:

"They tended to accommodate any means in pursuit of an uncertain end. They tended to avoid dwelling on just what that end might imply."; "The past could be jettisoned, children buried and parents left behind, but seeds got carried. They were women, these women in my family, without much time for second thoughts, without much inclination toward equivocation"
