I don't understand what the question is asking

The question is asking me to put paragraphs with the named elements but they look like they are already contained within a paragraph.

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <link href="styles.css" rel="stylesheet">
    <title>My Portfolio</title>
  </head>
  <body>

    <header>
    <ul></ul>
  <h1></h1>
  <p></p>
  </header>

    <ul>
      <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Work</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>            
    </ul>
    <h1>My Web Design &amp; Development Portfolio!</h1> 
    <p>A site featuring my latest work.</p>

    <h2>Welcome</h2> 
    <p>Fusce semper id ipsum sed scelerisque. Etiam nec elementum massa. Pellentesque tristique ex ac ipsum hendrerit, eget feugiat ante faucibus.</p>
    <ul>
      <p><li><a href="#">Recent project #1</a></li></p>
      <p><li><a href="#">Recent project #2</a></li></p>
      <p><li><a href="#">Recent project #3</a></li></p>
    </ul>

    <p>&copy; 2017 My Portfolio</p>
    <p>Follow me on <a href="#">Twitter</a></p>
    <p><a href="#">Instagram</a></p>
    <p><a href="#">Dribbble</a></p>
  </body>
</html>

When the instructions referred to "the ul,h1 and p elements at the top of the page" they were talking about the ones that were already there in the provided code (the first things in the <body>). They were not asking you to add new, empty ones.

So all you need to add in task one is the element to enclose the other elements.
