Note that "electricity" doesn't flow, only current does, which is one aspect of electricity, does. Current is the flow of electrons.
A conductor. It lets heat and electrical current easily.

Material that allows electricity to pass through it easily?
Metallic conductors such as copper, aluminum, silver and gold are some examples of materials through which heat and electricity can easily flow.

How well electricity flows through a material?
Depends on the material. The electricity can flow through metal better then it can through wood because wood is a conductor of electricity (example).
Why can't electricity go through rubber?
Rubber is what is known as an electrical insulator. The difference between insulators, which block the flow of electricity, and conductors, which permit the flow of electricity, lies in the availability of mobile electrons in the material in question. Electricity is composed of moving electrons. Some materials, such as metals, contain electrons that are easily moved, hence electric currents move easily in those materials. If a material does not have electrons that are easily moved, then it resists the flow of electrons.
Is the following sentence true or false charges flow easily through every material?
If we're talking about electrical current, then the answer is "false," because an electrical charge will flow very easily through some material, not that easily through some materials, and not at all through other materials. Usually electrical current will flow well through most metals. This is why copper wire is used to carry electricity, because copper allows electricity to flow with little resistance. If EVERY material in the world let electricity flow through it, we would be getting shocked all the time. Plastic and rubber, for instance, are very very resistant to electrical charges. If plastic and rubber allowed electricity to pass in them as easily as copper, you'd get an incredible shock every time you tried to touch your computer, put your finger on a light switch or answered your phone!
