Correct any mistakes in grammar, punctuation and usage that you find. Remember, you must CORRECT the errors, not merely identify them. Some of the sentences might have no errors. Some have more than one error. You might need to rewrite parts of several sentences to correct errors, but most sentences do not need to be rewritten. Don't change the wording of any material in quotes. You can change punctuation inside quotes if it is incorrect.
