As we all know, we cannot live without paper in our daily life. Paper is indispensable in our life. It can be said that paper is always closely tied to our human's life. Paper has multiple functions in our lives – from the newspaper and book we read, toilet paper we use in the bathroom, documents and notebook we write, and paper money, etc. If paper were not in existence, we human beings probably could not maintain the high cultural level.
