tertainment they provide for. In early times, books consisted of (4)______

was attached to each end of the sheet, which was then wounded up to form (9)______
a scroll. The papyrus could be easily carried and stored, and it was poor for (10)______
preserving records. Eventually parchment (the specially prepared skill of an
animal, usually a sheep or a goat) replaced papyrus as a writing material. [br] (3)
