Correct Answer Should be hanged

The sentence uses the form should be hung, which is incorrect and needs improvement.

To hang means to hoist something or hang someone (which is the intended meaning here). The past tense forms however, differ for these meanings; they are hung and hanged respectively.

The context suggests that the correct past tense form here should be 'hanged'.

None of the other alternatives can make the sentence meaningful.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 1.
