Sample:
Electricity is one of the great inventions of the past, because it has brought many
benefits for people. First, electricity can be used to light our houses and streets. Without
it, the world will be dark and dangerous. Second, electricity is also useful in heating. For
example, in cold areas, electric heaters can keep us warm and healthy in long winters.
Finally, the most important use of electricity is to run machines. Without electricity,
factories, schools and hospitals cannot run normally. Everyone and everything will stop
working. Other inventions, such as TVs, computers and robots will become useless
without electricity. In conclusion, electricity plays a very important part in our life today
and we cannot live without it.
