Dear Friends , I have sharing with your 10 most important passage. These are sample passages for your test preparation.
Passage 1
1. Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given at the end.
Paper is named for papyrus, a reed like plant used by ancient Egyptians as writing material more than 5,000 year ago. The Chinese invented the paper mat we use 2,000 years ago.
A piece of paper is really made up of tiny fibers, not unlike a piece of material. The fibers used in paper, however, are plant fibers, and there are millions of them in one sheet. In addition to the plant fiber, dyes and additive such s resin may be used. Dyes can make the paper different colours; resins may add weight and texture.
Where do these fibers come from? The majority of paper is made from the plant fiber that comes from trees. Millions are cut down, but new trees are planted in their place. Paper may be also made from things like old rags, or pieces of cloth. Wastepaper, paper that has been made and used, can be turned into recycled paper. This recycling process saves forests and energy and reduces air and water pollution.
