Identified mid-rapidity particle spectra of $\pi^{\pm}$, $K^{\pm}$, and $p(\bar{p})$ from 200 GeV p+p and d+Au collisions are reported. This data were taken in 2003 run from the Solenoidal Tracker at RHIC (STAR) experiment. A time-of-flight detector based on multi-gap resistive plate chamber (MRPC) technology is used for particle identification. The intrinsic timing resolution 85 ps was achieved after the calibration. We observe that the spectra of $\pi^{\pm}$, $K^{\pm}$, $p$ and $\bar{p}$ are considerably harder in d+Au than those in p+p collisions. In $\sqrt{s_{_{NN}}} = 200$ GeV d+Au collisions, the nuclear modification factor $R_{dAu}$ of protons rise faster than those of pions and kaons. Besides, the particle-species dependence of the Cronin effect is observed to be significantly smaller than that at lower energies. The ratio of the nuclear modification factor ($R_{dAu}$) between $(p+\bar{p})$ and charged hadrons ($h$) in the transverse momentum range $1.2
