Recently I need at least 5 minute to open the Word XP in my computer, but the other Office XP items likes Excel, Powerpoint just only need few seconds, does anyone can tell me what is going wrong , how to check and fix this problem?

Try holding down the left Shift key and then click on your icon to open Word.

Doing so will bypass any addins.
If it opens quickly doing it this way then disable any addins.
