Class 'ZipArchive' not found in Laravel phpword

Question

I have installed phpword package in my laravel project. Now when I try to read a docx file using this code

public function upload(Request $request){
    $file = $request->file('file');
    $phpWord = \PhpOffice\PhpWord\IOFactory::load($file);
    foreach($phpWord->getSections() as $section) {
        foreach($section->getElements() as $element) {
            if(method_exists($element,'getText')) {
                echo $element->getText() . "<br>";
            }
        }
    }
}

I am getting an error
