But the paper doesn't lack oxygen, it just lacks heat. ... The boiling water can't get above 212 degrees, and the paper is thin enough that this waterkeeps its temperature from climbing high enough to combust. It's only when the water on the other side of the paperentirely boils away that the paper cup will burn away.

Hey mate!

Here's ur answer dear:-)♣
_____________________

(a) Take some water in a paper cup and heat it. It is observe that it is possible to boil water without burning the paper cup. This is due to the reason that he heat given by the flame is quickly transferred from the paper cup to the water. As a result the temperature if the paper does not reach the ignition temperature and hence is not burned. The heat gained by water raises its temperature and finally it starts boiling.
