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! It is highly unusual though.
Study it and think about it,but you may still not find anything odd but if you work at it a bit you might find out.Try to do so without any coaching.

An English language teacher's answer might be: You've hit return unnecessarily after "though" in the second line, thus making it two unspaced paragraphs, not one. In addition, with one exception you've failed to space after each punctuation mark.

Spelling 10/10; Grammar 7/10; Structure 3/10.

I think the point is that e is the most commonly used letter in the English language, so a whole paragraph not having an e is highly unusual.

This was at one time a beloved joke in Channel 4's Countdown program, Carol Vorderman in particular often saying "would of" with mickey taking emphasis to show the falseness.

N.B. For the pedant, since this text is in English, my spelling of program was deliberate and correct.

All I noticed was the greengrocer's apostrophe, followed by the observation that Old Dave the man with the signature "E = mc2 give or take 1/4" was the first to get the answer :D
