In order to grow as a writer, you've got to be willing to risk it and(去掉) every time you sit down to write.  You've got to be open and brave and curious.  Whenever I'm asked, "When did you become a poet?"  I'm always tempted to say, "When did you stop?"
We're all born poets. We all enjoy the sounds of language. Every new parent knows that. We're all born with the need to "sound our barbaric yawp over the roofs of the world" as Whitman would have it.
Poetry is a natural part of our lives. It's not just something we have to memorize and recite in front of the class. Losing ourselves in a poem is one of the best ways of finding /ways to find out who we are. The act of writing brings us to that point of discovery, of discovering on the page something we didn't know we knew until we wrote it.
【小題1】and every time—去掉and
【小題2】open前面加be
【小題3】tempting-temped

【小題5】know-knows
【小題6】everything-something
【小題7】reciting- recite
【小題8】better ways-best ways
【小題9】find-finding

解析試題分析：【小題1】every time 每次，這個短語在句中可以直接作為連詞，后面接句子，無需再用連詞，故and every time—去掉and
【小題2】open為開放的，形容詞，形容詞前面需要有系動詞，構成系表結構的形式，句子的意思才完整，故open前面加be
【小題3】temped有興趣的，為形容詞，指人，temped to 意為試圖，故tempting-temped
【小題4】我們所有的額人出生都是詩人，we我們，復數(shù)人稱，名詞用復數(shù)形式，故poet- poets
【小題5】每個父母親都知道這個。Every new parent為第三人稱單數(shù)形式，故 know-knows
【小題6】它不僅僅是我們在同學們面前記得背的的一些東西，故將everything-something
【小題7】and表示并列的關系，前后的動詞用相同的形式，故將reciting- recite
【小題8】一種最好的方式，one of 表示…之一，后接形容詞或是副詞的最高級的形式，故better ways-best ways
【小題9】way of后接動名詞，故將find-finding
【小題10】not …until直到…才，固定句型，故將when-until
