仔细阅读写作题目后，我们知道，题目是个带条件状语从句的疑问句，引导我们对主题 ⑹If there were no power， our world would be in a state of confusion. ⑺For one thing， machines in factories would stop running and we would have to go without many essential industrial products. ⑻For another， our life would be seriously affected. ⑼For example， all the modern communications were shut up， running water would stop， and all the banks， schools， hospitals and post offices were closed. ⑽Without power， the result would be terrible.

⑹If there were no power， our world would be in a state of confusion. ⑺For one thing， machines in factories would stop running and we would have to go without many essential industrial products. ⑻For another， our life would be seriously affected. ⑼For example， all the modern communications were shut up， running water would stop， and all the banks， schools， hospitals and post offices were closed. ⑽Without power， the result would be terrible.

（第二段中用for one thing， for another这两个短语分别列举在没有电的情况下可能产生的两个结果，这一写作方法值得学习。还有像a state of confusion， go without … ， for example， shut up短语用得恰到好处。）

⑾Therefore， people should realize the importance of electricity and do everything to guarantee a steady supply of power. ⑿On the one hand， we should cultivate a sense of saving electricity. ⒀On the other hand， more power stations should be built and other energy resources must be found so as to provide sufficient power for the increasing demand.

（第三段中用得好的词有：guarantee， steady， cultivate， sufficient 。用得好的短语有：on the one hand， on the other hand， turn off， so as to … ， the increasing demand.
