These are the errors that I'm getting when I want to assign POS tags to sentences. I read sentences from a file. Initially (for few sentences) I'm not getting this error (i.e untokenizable), but after reading some sentences this error arises. I use v2.0 (i.e. 2009) of POS tagger and model is left3words.

What are POS tags used for? POS tags make it possible for automatic text processing tools to take into account which part of speech each word is. This facilitates the use of linguistic criteria in addition to statistics.
A Part-Of-Speech Tagger (POS Tagger) is a piece of software that reads text in some language and assigns parts of speech to each word (and other token), such as noun, verb, adjective, etc., although generally computational applications use more fine-grained POS tags like 'noun-plural'.
POS Tagging in NLTK is a process to mark up the words in text format for a particular part of a speech based on its definition and context. Some NLTK POS tagging examples are: CC, CD, EX, JJ, MD, NNP, PDT, PRP$, TO, etc. POS tagger is used to assign grammatical information of each word of the sentence.
POS-tagging algorithms fall into two distinctive groups: rule-based and stochastic. E. Brill's tagger, one of the first and most widely used English POS-taggers, employs rule-based algorithms.
I agree with Yuval -- a character encoding problem, but the commonest case is actually when the file is in a single byte encoding such as ISO-8859-1 while the tagger is trying to read it in UTF-8. See the discussion of U+FFFD on Wikipedia.
