6. This is an unusual paragraph.
I'm curious how quickly you
can find out what is so
unusual about it? It looks so
plain you would think nothing
was wrong with it! In fact,
nothing is wrong with it! It is
unusual though. Study it, and
think about it, but you still
may not find anything odd.
But if you work at it a bit, you
might find out! Try to do so
without any coaching!

total?
