Answer 1

Rena, you are both mistaken, the sentence is not in imperative, otherwise it would have to be: sal de la.....

It is third person, he takes the book...etc

sale de : he leaves the room

Answer 2

Take the book, open the door, and leave the room.

Answer 3

The sentence as a whole means take the book, open the door and leave the room.

In English, you don´t translate the word de but it literally means of.
