I’d recommend you google it, but incase you prefer a shortcut:

There's no pronoun agreement for "it." In this sentence, "it" could refer to anything. Am I googling the sun? A reindeer? The price of tea in China? We don't know because you failed to form a pronoun agreement and incorrectly used "it" out of place.

If you're going to pretend to be smart, at least know what the fuck you're talking about. Right now you're just a fake nerd.... which is a weird thing to emulate.
Good effort, but wrong. The antecedent of a pronoun is not required to be in the same sentence. In this case, the antecedent of "it" is "the paragraph".
