Explanation:

• Error Correction is an editing method by which one can identify errors/ incorrect words/mistakes such as grammatical errors, absence of articles, incorrect prepositions, conjunctions, tenses, verbs, etc. in a sentence or any unseen passage and convert it into an error-free, correct sentence or passage.

• Editing the unseen passage means making corrections and adding correct words and correcting the passage grammatically to make it more meaningful.
