Explanation:

- Option 1: furthermore

- "Furthermore" means in addition to what has been said or adding more information.

- Doesn't fit well here because the sentence contrasts people seeking advice with those too shy.

- Option 2: however

- "However" is used to introduce a statement that contrasts with or seems to contradict something that has been said previously.

- It fits well in this context, highlighting that some people, even though others sought advice, were shy.

- Option 3: therefore

- "Therefore" indicates a logical conclusion or result.

- It's out of place here since the sentence is providing a contrasting idea, not a conclusion.

- Option 4: moreover

- "Moreover" is used to add information or list additional things.

- It's not suitable here as the sentence is intended to contrast, rather than add information.

- Thus, the best choice is Option 2: however.
