A. Read the passage and answer the questions : (10 marks)
Do you know that around 270 eucalyptus trees or 460 bamboo plants
are saved when we produce one tonne of hand-made paper? It is eco
friendly hand-made paper that also checks pollution of water, land
and air. Large quantities of polluting chemicals are used by paper
mills.
Hand-made paper is the best form of recycled paper. It has a fine
surface for writing. It is also strong enough for making drawings.
Paper manufacturing is a very old tradition. It was invented in China
nearly two thousand years back. Indians used the leaves of palm
trees for writing. Papyrus is a kind of paper made from a reed of the
same name. It grew on the banks of the River Nile, and was used in
Egypt.
The hand-made paper industry flourished in India during the Mughal
period. But it died with the setting up of paper mills in the 18th and
19th centuries. Mahatma Gandhi revived it during the freedom
movement. Today it is a fast growing industry.
