Hint: Read the given sentence carefully. Try to find out the core meaning of it, the subject, predicate, and the object of it as well.

Complete answer:
 In the English language, the normal order of words in a sentence is subject + verb + object. The subject is the performer of the action (verb) and the object is the receiver of that action.
Now, let us examine all the given options to find out the correct answer-
In the given sentence, the object “him” is placed before the verb “explain”, whereas it should be placed after. Hence the sentence requires change and option ‘a' is incorrect.
Option ‘c’ is correct as the sentence follows the normal word order: subject (you) + verb (explain) + object (him, not to gamble).
(In imperative sentences that express a request (please) or a command, the subject is usually not present, it’s implied.)
Option ‘b’ is incorrect because the words are not in the required order, they’re in this order: object + verb.
Option ‘d’ is incorrect because the words are not in order; the sentence is incoherent in meaning. Hence, option ‘c’ is the correct answer.

Note:
You must check the tense of the given sentence as well. The new sentence must have its correct verb or tense form. There are 3 tenses – past, present, and future tense.
