Robert and William Hatch.
Which transition word indicates that additional
information is being added?

O so
O again
O before
FLORENCE GRIFFITH-JOYNER: Before I actually
started competing in track and field we used to race in
the neighborhood where I grew up in south-central Los
Angeles. I said, "Wow. Wouldn't that be nice for me to be
able to feel this good about something I love so much for
the rest of my life?" So I chose, at a very early age, to
continue running throughout my entire life. And again, it's
so important that whatever you do in life, that you enjoy
it.
O and

O And.

Explanation:

Transition words are those words that act as the "glue" to connect ideas in a sentence or indicate the words or phrases that are connected for a better understanding of the readers. They are words such as "and", "again", "so" "but" etc.

In the given passage, there are several transition words used. But the one transition word that is used to indicate that additional information is being added is the use of the word "and".

Thus, the correct answer is "and".

a complex sentence consists of an independent clause and one or more dependent clauses.  

to write complex sentences, we must use subordinating conjunctions.  

all the complex sentences begin with a subordinating conjunction and when it occurs, a comma must be place at the end of the dependent clause. on the contrary, if the sentence begins with an independent clause, then no comma is used.
