D. To explain the steps necessary to enter a contest

Option B is incorrect because, despite being written in an entertaining way, the text doesn't contain stories of talent auditions.
Option C is incorrect because the text doesn't simply persuade children to develop their talents. There are many ways to do that without applying for a contest.

This is why option D is the correct one.

Sauntering meant to value what you see, and this is what John Muir spent is whole life doing: valuing and enjoying nature, instead of rushing to be the first. Another evidence that supports that John Muir valued nature when Muir was in his 30's he had stumbled upon the great California's Sierra Nevada mountains. He would scramble down steep cliff faces to get a closer look at the waterfalls and would jump and howl to show how much he loved nature (paragraph 4). Muir would also do some soulful writing about the places he visited (paragraph 5).
