Certainly, children must start with enjoyment 22 their interest in poetry dies.
答案：(A) or
or 在此表示「否則」：孩子必須從樂趣出發，否則他們對詩的興趣就會消失；and（而且）、so（所以）、then（然後）都無法表達這層警告語氣。
答對率 36%。
or 你大概只當它是「或者」，沒學過它接在「祈使句或 must 句」之後時，意思是「否則、不然的話」。
Hurry up, or you'll be late.（快一點，否則你會遲到）——前半是要求，後半是不照做的後果。本句 children must start with enjoyment or their interest in poetry dies（孩子必須從樂趣出發，否則他們對詩的興趣就會消失）結構完全一樣，只是把祈使句換成 must。
看 or 後面那半句是不是「不好的結果」。本句後半是 their interest dies（興趣消失），顯然是警告而非選項，所以是「否則」不是「或者」。填 and 會變成「必須從樂趣出發，而且興趣會消失」，自相矛盾。
or ＝ or else ＝ otherwise，三者可以互換，只是正式程度不同。
祈使句 + or（否則）、or else（否則）、otherwise（否則）、祈使句 + and（就會…，正面結果）。
Children's encounters with poetry should include three types of response—enjoyment, exploration, and deepening understanding. These do not occur always as 21 steps but may happen simultaneously.
Certainly, children must start with enjoyment 22 their interest in poetry dies. But if from the beginning they find delight in the poems they hear or read, they are ready and eager to 23 further—more books and more poems of different sorts.
Even the youngest children can learn to see implications 24 the obvious. To read for hidden meanings is to identify with the poet, to ask the poet's questions. This is reading for deeper understanding, 25 a thoughtful look at what lies beneath the surface. Enjoyment, exploration, and deeper understanding must all be part of children's experience with poetry if we are to help them to love it.
