5. This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious as to just how
quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks
so ordinary and plain that you would think nothing was wrong
with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is highly
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!
Answer
5. The letter "e", which is the most common letter used in the English language,
does not appear even once in the paragraph.
