Corrected sentence:
The two wings of a biplane let it take off from short runways and glide for long distances.
Why this is better (easy steps):
- "Two wings" is a simple way to say "double wings" so it is easier to understand.
- We say "take off from" a runway — the plane starts on the runway and then flies up.
- "Glide" means the plane flies smoothly for a long time. "Drift" sounds like being pushed by the wind, so "glide" is clearer here.
If you like a shorter version for a child: "A biplane has two wings. The wings help it take off from short runways and glide far."
