Q:

A) not the electric do touch open wires B) do not touch the electric open wires
C) do not touch the open electric wires D) not the do electric touch open wires
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) do not touch the open electric wires

Explanation:

For convenience , we assign numbers to each word :

allow  children  to  play  on  the  ground

   1         2      3    4      5    6       7

It has been coded as : 

play  allow  on  children  the  to  ground

  4       1     5        2       6    3      7

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hence the given code is :

the  do  open  not  electric  touch  wires

 4     1      5     2       6         3       7

Now arranging them as 1 2 3 4 5 6 7, we have "do not touch the open electric wires'.

Hence, option (3) is correct answer.
