Default English Correction Prep for CE-2018

Hi,

Since the composition has been a hard nut to crack. It needs a home work practice. Without enough practice, I feel no candidate can really attain auspicious marks. So let us to crack corrections from past papers.

Best of luck

Translation:

In the lives of nations, unity is the only power with which they are able to overcome difficulties and achieve success. National unity plays an important role in the prosperity of a country. National unity is of utmost significance in strengthening our nation. Undoubtedly, Pakistan is going through the most sensitive phase in its history. In order to make Pakistan a powerful and welfare state, incorporating national unity in its folds is an essential endeavour. The need for resolving mutual disputes and building unity was never as essential as it is now. Our Western and Eastern borders are demanding our attention. To examine issues of establishing an environment of peace, bringing economic stability, tackling energy crisis, we have to, individually and collectively, display tolerance and patience and work hard towards it

Guys, check how is this ? Pls point out mistake. TIA
