Cooking machines: oven, microwave, kettle, toaster and hob, sentence 15

When the knob of a gas cooker is turned, a spark lights the gas; natural gas has no smell of its own, so a smell is added to make leaks easy to notice.

Who acts: spark, natural gas · What happens: turn, light, have, add, make, notice · To what, where: knob, gas, smell, leaks
