Hint: An imperative sentence is used to express orders, instructions, advice, or requests.

Complete step-by-step answer:

An imperative sentence usually begins with a reporting verb. An imperative sentence usually begins with ‘don’t’ when it expresses an order.
Example- Don't waste your time. Here, we can see that X is ordering Y to not waste his time.
In the above-given question: We can understand that the speaker is trying to order the unrevealed subject. Hence, we will begin the sentence with ‘don’t’.
Let’s look at the given options:
a)Don’t play go out or in the sun- The composition of the given sentence is completely inappropriate and illogical. Hence, it is an incorrect option.
b)In the sun don’t go out play or- This sentence lacks a logical meaning. Hence, it is an incorrect option.
c)Don’t go out or play in the sun- This sentence expresses order and a complete thought. Hence, it is the correct option.
d)Don’t play go or out in the sun- This sentence has an inappropriate composition. Hence, it is an incorrect option.
The correct answer is Option ‘c’.

Note: Most of the time, the subject of the imperative sentence is not revealed or kept hidden.
