"This is a highly unusual paragraph. Do you know why? If you try to find what is odd about it too quickly, it probably won't occur to you. Study it without hurrying and you may think of what it is. Good luck."

It appears as a problem in the exercise of a book I'm reading in the chapter titled "An Application of Statistics -- The Breaking of Ciphers and Codes".
