Your hard drive is likely failing and bad sectors can not be fixed. Back up your data. You can reformat the partition(s) and during the formatting process bad sectors will be marked as unusable. This may extend the life of the drive, but, total disk failure can occur at any time with no additional warning. – Panther Jan 29 '15 at 00:42

My apologies for posting this as an answer, but comments would not get the attention this needs. It is my considered opinion, that your drive is in imminent danger of failing.
Please make a full system backup right now.
If you don't know how to make a system backup, please refer to this question. You're user type 4. If you need any further help on making a system backup, leave a comment below this answer.
What??? You're still here? Go away and make the system back-up first! (Disk-to-image)
Then, boot from a LiveCD and issue the following command:
sudo apt-get install smartmontools
Then:
sudo smartctl --all /dev/sda
and post the output of that to http://paste.ubuntu.com and provide a link to the ouput back here. Then:
sudo smartctl --test=short /dev/sda
Wait for 5 minutes and post the output of that (by doing another sudo smartctl --all /dev/sda
) to http://paste.ubuntu.com too and provide that link to its output back here too.
