(1) How accurate are the FBI's crime statistics? (2) First, these statistics reflect only those crimes reported
  to local police departments, and it is estimated that only two out of every five crimes are officially known
  to the police. (3) Second, because some types of crime are more likely to be reported than others are, the
  statistics may not account for large numbers of crimes. (4) Murders and auto thefts are almost always
  reported, whereas larceny1
   and rape victims, whether out of embarrassment or fear, or other reasons, may
  remain silent. (5) Third, the FBI's crime data include only eight types of criminal behavior, which means
  that most white-collar2
   crimes and drug crimes are excluded, despite the fact that their number is growing.
  What kind of generalization could be made about the details stated in the paragraph?
 
  a. All of the statistics are very accurate.
  b. All of the statistics are based on partial or incomplete information.
  c. All of the statistics are increasing in number.
  d. All of the statistics have been carefully researched and compiled.
