A parasol is a kind of smaller umbrella that is designed to keep off the sun rather than the rain.
Basking is sitting or lying in warmth, enjoying it. You can also bask in something pleasant, as in "she was basking in the attention".
Lizards like to bask in the sun because they are cold blooded and the sunshine warms them up.
Sis forSunglasses
Sunglasses are worn over your eyes so you don't get dazzled by the sun. Some people wear them because they think it makes them look better.
Fis forFocal point
A focal point is where rays of light converge into a single point. The glass inside a magnifying glass is curved so that it bends all the light that goes through it towards a central point. If you move a magnifying glass up and down in the sun, you will find that at a particular distance away the magnifying glass makes a pinpoint of light that is hot enough to set something on fire. This is called the focal point.
Wind is just the large scale movement of air. Wind happens because some parts of the world get heated up more than others by the sun, and it makes the air there get bigger, so the air has to try and move somewhere it has more room. Where it is cold, the air gets smaller, so wind is always moving between places that are different temperatures.
When it is very windy it is called a storm. Wind can be very dangerous, but it can also be turned into electricity using wind turbines or used for other purposes using windmills.
There are lots of words that mean different kinds of wind, like breeze for a gentle wind, gust for a sudden burst of wind, or gale for a very strong wind.
West is a direction. The sun sets in the west in the evening.
