He did not have a permanent address.
- This option is incorrect because the passage does not mention anything about John Muir's permanent address or lack thereof. The phrase \"John Muir, Earth-planet, Universe\" reflects more on his outlook and mindset rather than his logistical living situation.
He wanted to be a traveler all his life.
- This option is incorrect. While John Muir's extensive travels and explorations are highlighted in the passage, the phrase \"Earth-planet, Universe\" is more indicative of his broad, cosmopolitan outlook and not specifically about a lifelong desire to travel.
His love for botany went beyond borders.
- This option is correct. The passage states, \"his eager interest in every aspect of the natural world had made him a citizen of the universe.\" This suggests that Muir's passion for the natural world and botany transcended geographical boundaries.
He wanted to live in the open all his life.
- This option is incorrect because the phrase \"Earth-planet, Universe\" reflects Muir's broad interest and connection to the natural world rather than a specific desire to live outdoors all his life.
