I'm not understanding what you mean. All I want to know is what are we suppose to solve?

The paragraph in question has been written to a certain rule. Your task is to figure out what that rule is. For example, in the paragraph CrystyB linked to, the answer is that (highlight) the paragraph is writtten without using the letter E once. That is the answer. The rule could be that there is a palindrome in every sentence or the number of words in each sentence is the same as a well known sequence, or that every letter of the alphabet is used in each sentence, or something like that. Whatever it is, you just have to work out the rule the author adhered to while writing the paragraph.
