Maria panicked when she reached into her purse and realized her wallet was gone!
(cried is also a possible answer, despaired also could be, but panicked seems to make the most sense)
It helps to define the words:
- despaired = lose or be without hope
- cried = shed tears, typically as an expression of distress, pain, or sorrow
- panicked = feel or cause to feel panic
- panic = sudden uncontrollable fear or anxiety, often causing wildly unthinking behavior
- wondered = desire or be curious to know something
Hope this helps, have a nice day :D
