The sentence to complete reads: 'Riding a bicycle without a helmet can be dangerous. _______________, my nephew had to get stitches in his scalp when he fell off his bike and wasn't wearing a helmet.'

Option 1: 'Also' - Using 'also' would suggest addition to an already established point, but the second clause provides an example illustrating the danger, not an additional, parallel point. This makes 'Also' an awkward fit here because the sentence is moving from a general statement to a specific instance rather than adding another point.

Option 2: 'For example' - This phrase introduces an example that supports the preceding statement. The following clause indeed provides a concrete instance (nephew needing stitches) to illustrate the risk of not wearing a helmet. Punctuation typically requires a comma after 'For example,' which aligns with standard written English: 'For example, my nephew had to get stitches...'. This option accurately signals that the next clause is an illustrative instance.

Option 3: 'However' - 'However' is a contrast marker indicating a shift or contradiction to what was stated before. The second clause does not contradict the first; it reinforces the risk with an example. Therefore 'However' disrupts the intended flow and would be misused in this context.

Option 4: 'Moreover' - 'Moreover' adds additional information that reinforces or expands on the prior statement. While it could be used to add emphasis, the structure 'Moreover, my nephew...' would feel slightly formal and less natural than presenting a concrete example. The sentence is aiming to illustrate through a specific instance rather than simply adding another point.

In summary, among the options, the one that best introduces a concrete illustration that follows from the general claim about danger is the phrase that signals an example. The other connectors either imply a contrast, an additional point without illustration, or an overly formal emphasis, which do not align with the intended meaning of the sentence.
