Hi
"Wince" means, in that case, to suddenly make an expression with your face that shows that you are feeling pain or embarrassment. |

thank you for your help
however, my textbook`s answer is A (pull back suddenly)
I don`t know the reason.
Is the answer could be wrong? |

It's not wrong. Of the three answers to the question given above, #A is the best answer, because when you are feeling pain or embarrassment, and, to be exact, if sometihng surprises you, you might pull back suddenly. |
