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!

If you balanced a broom horizontally on your finger, so that your finger was exactly on the broom’s center of gravity, marked that spot and cut the broom in two, then you would have a long and a short piece. The long piece being most of the handle and the short piece being the bristle end and a small part of the handle. Now what will happen if you weigh both pieces? (pick all that apply)

A. The short piece will weigh more.
B. The long piece will weigh more.
C. Both will weigh the same.
D. Your mom will find out and hit you with both pieces!
