Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D. Sign in first before going in
'Must' shows an obligation and 'before entering' sets the order.
Answer: Sign in first before going in.
Why not the others: Enter first and register afterwards: the rule says before entering. Register only if they stay overnight: no such exception is given. Show identity only when asked: registration is required for all visitors.
