Question

【题目】Paper was not made in southern Europe until the year of 1100. Though Scandinavia(斯堪的维尼亚半岛) now makes a great deal of the world’s paper, it had not begun to make it until 1500. It was a German named Schaeffer who found out that one could make paper from wood. After that, forest countries, such as Canada, Sweden, Norway, Finland and the United States, became important in paper making. Today in Finland, for example, no industry（工业）is bigger than the forest industry. And the paper industry is the most important part of it.

Modern paper-making machines are very big, and they make paper very fast. The biggest machines can make a piece of paper 750 meters long and six meters wide in one minute.

When we think of paper, we think of newspapers, books, letters, envelopes（信封）, and writing paper. But there are many other uses. Each year, more and more things are made of paper. We have had paper cups, plates, and dishes for a long time. But now we hear that chairs, tables and even beds can be made of paper. The newest thing made of paper in the world may be a paper house. It is not a small house for children to play in, but a real, big house for people to live in. It is not expensive. You can put up a paper house yourself in a few hours, and you can use it for about 5 years.
