From where airplane take off?

Aeroplanes take of from huge long distance roads called runways. A runway is located near an airport. When an aeroplane is full or ready to "take off", it "taxis" out to the runway and stops for a very short time. When the pilots get the word from Air Traffic Control, they increase the throttle of the engine (engine speed) and when a certain speed is reached, the plane climbs into the sky. Then after reaching a certain height, it levels off and flies straight. Then, it descends before reaching the planned destination and lands on the runway. Then the above steps repeat over and over.
