steel wire bent into a looped(环形的) shape，is an instrument used to hold sheets of paper together.This common device is a wonder of simplicity and function.But where did this simple，cheap，and practical invention come from?In the late 19th century，the most common way to hold papers together was by using a pin.Although the pin was an inexpensive tool and was easily removable，it would leave holes in the paper.Later，as steel wire became more common，inventors began to notice its elastic(有弹性的) feature.With this feature，it could be stretched and twisted into various cliplike objects.In the years just before 1900，quite a few paperclip designs appeared.The name most frequently associated with the paperclip invention is Johan Vaaler，a Norwegian inventor.However，Vaalers clips were not the same as the paperclips currently in use.Specifically，they did not have the inside loop we see today.The familiar looped design was invented by Gem Manufacturing Ltd.in England.This clip is therefore sometimes known as the Gem clip.Because of Vaaler，the paperclip played an important historical role in Norway.During World War ，Norway was occupied by the Nazis.Norwegians were prohibited from wearing any symbol of their national unity(团结)，such as buttons with the initials of their king.Thus，in protest，they started wearing paperclips to show their unity.The reason for doing this was simple：Paperclips were a Norwegian invention whose original function was to bind together.After the war，a giant paperclip statue was put up in Oslo to honour Vaalereven though his design was never actually produced.【文章大意】本文是一项科技发明曲别针。主要介绍曲别针的发明过程和其构造以及主要功能。1According to the first paragraph，the paperclip is_Amade of paperBfor holding clothes togetherCshaped like a pinDinexpensive and
