紙張發明之前,人們將文字刻在平整的竹片或木片上。由竹片或木片製成的書很笨重,不方便閱讀和攜帶。東漢時期( the Eastern Han Dynasty)，蔡倫利用樹皮( tree bark)、麻頭(hemp)、破布等來造紙,得名”蔡倫紙”。由於輕便價廉,這種紙很快得到推廣並取代竹片和木片。隨後,中國的造紙技術流傳至世界各地。造紙術是中國的四大發明之一,是中華民族對世界文明的傑出貢獻。
參考譯文：
Before paper was invented, characters were carved on flat strips of bamboo or wood. Books made of bamboo or wood were heavy, and inconvenient for reading and carrying. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, Cai Lun used materials such as tree bark, hemp and rags to make paper, known as "Cai Lun Paper". Light and cheap, it soon became widespread and replaced bamboo and wood strips for writing. Later on, the technique of papermaking in China was introduced into countries around the world. As one of the Chinese Four Great Inventions, papermaking is considered to be a great contribution of the Chinese people to the world's civilization.
