Shows surprise (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gapes

'shows surprise' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for gapes that I've seen before include "Looks on with open mouth" , "goggles" , "Opens mouth wide in surprise" , "seems very surprised" , "Stares at with mouth wide open" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
