fects of wars and atural disasters.
In addition to serve as sources of knowledge and tools of (3)______
learning, books have long been valued for the pleasure and en
tertainment they provide for. In early times, books consisted of (4)______
inscribing clay tablets, rolls of papyrus, sheets of parchment, or other ma- (5)______
terials. Modern books consist of printed pages bound between protective
covers. The earliest survived works that may be classified as books were (6)______

The wedge-shape letters characteristic of cuneiform script was pressed into (7)______

papyrus plant. The strips were pasted together to form long sheets. A stick
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] (6)
