Solution

The correct option is A You must not repeat this in order to escape punishment.
Compound sentences can be transformed into simple sentences by changing first clause into an infinitive phrase. Here "You...punished" is changed to "in...punishment". Hence, Option A is correct. The rest of the options do not fit the description, hence incorrect.
