Read the extracts below and then answer the following questions.
TEXT 1:
Annual government surveys from the Bureau of Justice Statistics show no recent increase in the
U.S. violent crime rate.
In 2021, the most recent year with available data, there were 16.5 violent crimes for every 1,000 Americans
ages 12 and older. That was statistically unchanged from the year before, below pre-pandemic levels and far
below the rates recorded in the 1990s, according to the National Crime Victimization Survey.
For each of the four violent crime types tracked in the survey – simple assault, aggravated assault, robbery
and rape/sexual assault – there was no statistically significant increase either in 2020 or 2021.
The National Crime Victimization Survey is fielded each year among approximately 240,000 Americans ages
12 and older and asks them to describe any recent experiences they have had with crime. The survey counts
threatened, attempted and completed crimes, whether or not they were reported to police. Notably, it
does not track the most serious form of violent crime, murder, because it is based on interviews with surviving
crime victims.
TEXT 2:
While the total U.S. violent crime rate does not
appear to have increased recently, the most
serious form of violent crime – murder – has
risen significantly during the pandemic
Both the FBI and the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC) reported a roughly 30%
increase in the U.S. murder rate between 2019 and
2020, marking one of the largest year-over-year
increases ever recorded. The FBI’s latest data, as
well as provisional data from the CDC, suggest that
murders continued to rise in 2021.

The following text refer to question.
Kevin Adkins almost kicked the Ice Age skull to the side because he thought it was just debris from a recent flood – then
he saw that it had teeth.
When Kevin Adkins took his father-in-law, Tony Hager, on his first turkey hunt on May 8, 2022, the two West Virginians spotted
an animal skull in a Putnam County creek. Covered in mud from a flood that had hit the region two days earlier, it was initially
unidentifiable. So Adkins took it home – and later learned that it belonged to an 11,000-year-old giant sloth.
While 36-year-old Adkins had hunted turkeys in Putnam County plenty of times before, he had never come across something
like this. Trudging through the muddy wilderness, the Red House resident and his father-in-law were primarily interested in nabbing
some wild birds when they encountered the relic.
“We were running and gunning for toms,” Adkins told Outdoor Life. “We’d worked a gobbler for about 30 minutes, then the bird
moved off, so we picked up and headed up the creek. I looked down in the middle of the creek as we crossed it and saw a big blob
of something I thought was a root ball, so I almost kicked it away.”
“But I noticed something different about it and looked closer,” Adkins went on. “That’s when I saw some molar teeth, so I picked
it up.”
Determined not to let the potential find of a lifetime distract from his turkey hunt, Adkins propped the skull next to the creek and
forged ahead. When he and Hager concluded their hunt later that morning, they retrieved the skull and carried it home.
“[My wife] thought it was a cow skull because it was so big,” Adkins said. The skull weighed about 30 pounds and sported tufts
of hair. It had four molar teeth on either side of its jawbone.
“But my father-in-law said no, it was something very different,” continued Adkins. “That’s when we started searching the internet,
sending photos to family and friends, and then I posted it on social media. That really got things moving along with trying to ID what
I’d found.”
