课文详注 Further notes on the text
1.writing paper, 信纸。
paper意为“纸”、“纸张”时是不可数名词,一张纸应是 a sheet of paper或 a piece of paper。类似的名词还有:glue(a bottle of glue一瓶胶水);chalk(a box/piece of chalk一盒/枝粉笔);ink (a bottle of ink一瓶墨水)。

boxes后省略了 of chalk。
3.Do you want one? 您要一盒吗?

4.What else do you want? 您还要什么吗?
What else…? 可以看成是表示疑问的一个句式,意思是“还有什么……吗?”else常接在疑问代词、不定代词及疑问副词后面,表示“此外”、“别的”、“其他的”。又如:
Who else is from New York? 还有谁是从纽约来的?
When else shall we meet again? 什么其他的时间我们再见面?
What else did he say? 他还说了些什么?
