Explanation Text

All planes need air to presure under their wings to stay up in the air. As they move
forward. The higher air pressure underneath their wings pushes them upward and gives them lift.
The smooth, streamlined shape of the plane allows the air to flows easily over its surface. It helps
to reduce the drag caused by the air pushing against the plane and allows it to move rapidly
through the air.
Planes move forward using engines. This movement is called thrust. Moving forward keeps a
stream of moving air passing over the wings. If the engines fail, theplanes will begin to descend
very quickly.
The air above the wing moves faster, so it is at a lower pressure than the air under the wing.
The air under the wing moves more slowly and is slightly squashed, so it is at a higher pressure
than the air above the wing.

The sense of taste is one of a person's five senses. We taste with the help of taste-
buds in the tongue. There are four main kinds of taste: sweet, sour, salty, and bitter. All
other tastes are just mixtures of two or more of these main types. The surface of the
tongue has more than fifteen thousand taste-buds (or cells). These are connected to the
brain by special nerves which send the so-called 'tastes messages. When the tongue comes
into contact with food of any kind, the taste-buds will pick up the taste. The nerves then
send a message to the brain. This will make us aware of the taste. All this happens in just a
few seconds.
There are four kinds of taste-buds, each of which is sensitive to only a particular
taste. These four groups are located in different parts of the tongue. The taste-buds for
salty and sweet tastes are found round the tip of the tongue and along its sides. Sour tastes
can be picked up only at the sides of the tongue. The taste-buds of the bitter taste are
found at the innermost edge of the tongue. There are taste-buds at the centre of the
tongue.



The senses of smell and sight can affect taste. The good smell of food increases its
taste. Similarly, attractive colours can make food appear tastier and more delicious. If food
does not smell good or is dull-coloured, it will look tasty and may not taste good at all. Very
hot or cold sensations can make the taste-buds insensitive. Food that is too hot or too cold,
when placed in the mouth, will have no tastes at all.
