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!

I know the suffix "ic" means "of, or pertaining to", like "alcohol-alcoholic", acid-acidic", or "islam-islamic". Is there a such thing as a "cathol"? Where did the word "CATHOLIC" originate and from what?

Complimentary lunch and valet or self parking (on the Federal Street side) IS/ARE included in this event.

My manager and I got into a debate about this today because my spell checker caught it. My spell checker said it should be "is". I know "are" sounds better, but after doing research on the internet about this, I believe it's 'is". I read that if the subject is referencing plural items, you use "are",

The birds are eating
The bird is eating

But since this sentence is using singular (non-counting also) nouns, I think you would use "is". However, what I am confused the most about is that there are 3 nouns (lunch, valet, self parking). That doesn't make it a plural form, does it? HELP!!!!!

Who's correct?
