  The textile vs. fabric debate may sound like a minor squabble over semantics (=an insignificant argument about meaning), but in the textile industry, it’s a pretty heated (=serious) discussion.

The major difference here is that “textile” can refer to an impressive array of fiber-based products, including raw materials and intermediate (=middle stage) products that are processed into fabric. Consequently, textiles are both the ingredients and finished products of a recipe, all interlaced (=joined) by materials, whether finished or unfinished. Fabrics, for another, are whole loaves of bread made from some textiles (their raw dough), waiting for the final shaping and then strutting their stuff (=showing themselves proudly)) at the bakery.

  A natural spectacle of incomparable beauty, the auroras are produced around the magnetic poles of the Earth by the activity of the Sun. Solar wind acts on the magnetosphere, which is a part of the exosphere. In general, the greater the solar wind, the more prominent the aurora. Auroras consist of luminous patches and columns of various colors. Depending on whether they appear in the north or south, they are called aurora borealis or aurora australis. The aurora borealis can be seen in Alaska, Canada, and the Scandinavian countries. solar wind = a stream of charged particles released from the corona(=the Sun's outermost atmospheric layer) altitude = height above sea level oscillate = to vary Pay Attention To Pronunciation aurora [ɔːˈrɔːrə]
