Saturated air contains relaitvely higher amount of water molecules. Thus it requires much time to cool. Whereas in case of unsaturated air, the number of water molecules are less. So, it's much obvious that lesser amount of water molecules require less time to cool.

as the ascending air of currnt is cool , it contains more water vapor and as a result it reaches the dew point and gets saturated.

How could you compare a saturated solution to an unsaturated solution?

In a saturated solution, if you add any more of the substance that the solution is saturated with, it will either not dissolve or cause some of the existing solute to precipitate or separate. The one caveat is that it is possible to achieve a "supersaturated solution" by careful manipulation of a solution to bring it into a metastable state. One common way to achieve supersaturation is to cool a saturated solution in a container which is so smooth that it lacks nucleation sites.

How can you find out if salt in water is a saturated solution?

It depends on the amount of salt and the amount of water. If there is only a little salt, it is probably unsaturated. That means more salt could be dissolved into the solution. If there is quite a bit of salt, it is more than likely saturated. If you add more salt and it just floats to the bottom, it is saturated. Unless it is supersaturated of course. For the solution to be supersaturated, you would have had to boil the water, add salt to the point where it stops dissolving into the boiling hot solution, then let the solution cool down. So, it can be any of the three.

I think the answer is cool slowly because if you left something that was hot out, it would cool.
