Paper

We require many things for daily use. One of these thing is paper. It is very essential to us. We cannot do without paper.It is used in schools, campuses offices, shops,and factories. It is a common and cheap thing. In ancient times, there was no paper. People used to write on the bank and leaves of certain trees. In Egypt, they wrote on the  leaves of  the papyrus plant. The word paper comes from papyrus. In India, they wrote on the leaves of the palm and the birch tree. Writing was difficult in ancient times.Paper is generally made of soft wood. It is also made of bamboo, grass, rags and waste paper. These things are changed into pulp. The pulp is spread into thin sheets and dried. Then it is cut into various sizes. This paper is white. Sometimes, a dye is mixed with the pulp, and paper becomes coloured. Paper is made by machines in factories.
