Biplanes may appear to have four wings, but one wing is generally refered to the full stretch from left to right. If you look at the top wing of a biplane, it is generally one ininterrupted stretch of (often) wood and fabric, just like a rear wing on an F1 car. A biplane has two of these full-length wings and as such has the 'bi-' prefix. A monoplane is a plane that has only one wing, as 99% of planes today have.
