How would your home be different without electricity?
Arada [10]

Answer:

There would be no power to use your fridge or freezer, telephone lines would be down and phone signal lost. Your mobile phones will be useless as the battery dwindles, with no back up charging option. Your gas central heating won’t work and your water supply would soon stop pumping clean water.

It sometimes takes a lot for some people to realise that without electricity it isn’t just internet and Wi-Fi that is affected, it also means no cash machines, no lifts, no power to keep the factories going, and no petrol pumps. It is seen as the end of normality as we know it.

Two critical things we need in our life are heating and water, and without electricity, these are both compromised. The gas central heating in our homes works with electric controls and circulating systems and pumps. Water systems are dependent on electrically managed systems and pumps, so even if water is still accessible in your home, you would still have to purify it before drinking.

How should voters prepare for election? Write a single paragraph explaining your answer
baherus [9]

<em>Voters should not listen to social media or what their best friend says about the candidates. They should also leave out feelings and look at the facts and statistics about each candidate, see which views you support. Which candidate supports your views and will work for you? Instead of listening to what someone else says, research yourself. If you don't do the research and you vote for someone based on others opinions, you have failed yourself.</em>
