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)。
2.I only have small boxes. 我只有小盒的。
boxes后省略了 of chalk。
3.Do you want one? 您要一盒吗?
one代替 one small box of chalk。
4.What else do you want? 您还要什么吗?

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?
