原文呈现
At the beginning, I was affaid to try writing a poem. I tried to write one about my favourite place beside a lake. But it was too hard to write that poem! Then my teacher encouraged me to write a humorous poem because I am always saying funny things. So I wrote a funny poem about a donut. Later I decided to write a poem about a cat! Here it is.
at the beginning意为“开始时,起初”,at也可以
换成in, 后接of短语时,只能用at the beginning。
be afraid to do sth.意为“害怕做某事”。
本句中it作形式主语,真正的主语是动词不定式短

语时,常用it作形式主语,而将动词不定式放于句末。
encourage sb. to do sth.意为“鼓励某人做某事”。
always为副词,表示“总是,一直”,常用于一般现在时。
always也可以用于进行时,be always doing sth.意为“总

不满、厌恶、烦躁、感叹等感彩。
