(1.0 p) Have you ever wondered how paper is made? It is made from long, thin threads called fibers. These fibers give paper its strength. Long ago, the Egyptians used the fibers in the stems of the papyrus to make paper. The word "paper" therefore comes from the name of the plant. But the paper they made was not very strong and did not last long. Nowadays, people use trees to make paper because they have long and strong fibers inside them. The most useful kinds of trees are confiners such as spruce or pipe trees. Confiners are specially grown on big plantations in countries such as Norway, Sweden, America and Indonesia. The trees are grown in straight lines so they can be easily looked after and cut down. 1. Paper is made from long, thin threads of fibers to __________.
