ده رد محرر لونجمان علي الفرق بين be made of / from

The general rule is that we use made of when the material has not been radically changed or processed, only shaped, and it is still apparent. We use made from when the material has been changed or processed so that it is not apparent. Thus we say:
A table is made of wood.
Paper is made from wood.
<!--[ However, in real life, this general rule (and most rules of grammar and usage) are not carved in stone. Native speakers sometimes do say made from when the material is apparent, and this is reflected in the reading passage you note. (For more examples, search for the phrase “made from” in Google Books.)
If you look through the Q&A on this website, you will find that the reading passages often “break the rules” because they reflect real usage. Students should still learn the rules for production and understanding, but they should also be able to understand a reading passage when a rule has been “broken.”
