Peyton Murray · Answer 1

The correct answers are the first and second sentence:

-He wrung as much water out of the towel as he could before hanging it up.

-When she heard the news, she wrung her hands in frustration.

The word WRUNG is the past form of the verb WRING. In these two previous sentences we find two meanings to the verb WRING:

*Twisting something to extract water or a liquid from it.

*To twist both hands in a sign of suffering or torment.
