[The porter) followed the servant into a vast room, where a
great company was seated round a table covered with all
sorts of delicacies. In the place of honor sat a tall, grave

Behind his chair stood a crowd of attendants eager to
minister to his wants. This was the famous Sindbad
himself. The porter, more than ever alarmed at the sight of
so much magnificence, tremblingly saluted the noble
company. Sindbad, making a sign to him to approach,
caused him to be seated at his right hand, and himself
heaped choice morsels upon his plate, and poured out for
him a draught of excellent wine, and presently, when the
banquet drew to a close, spoke to him familiarly, asking
his name and occupation.

explanation:

first, let's define each choice:

corporate crime: in criminology, corporate crime refers to crimes committed either by a corporation, or by individuals acting on behalf of a corporation or other business entity. some negative behaviours by corporations may not actually be criminal; laws vary between jurisdictions.

hate crime: a hate crime is a prejudice-motivated crime which occurs when a perpetrator targets a victim because of his or her membership in a certain social group or race.

racial crime: a hate crime is a prejudice-motivated crime which occurs when a perpetrator targets a victim because of his or her membership in a certain social group or race

organized crime: a category of transnational, national, or local groupings of highly centralized enterprises run by criminals who intend to engage in illegal activity, most commonly for money and profit. some criminal organizations, such as terrorist groups, are politically motivated.

white-collar crime: refers to financially motivated, nonviolent crime committed by business and government professionals. within criminology, it was first defined by sociologist edwin sutherland in 1939 as "a crime committed by a person of respectability and high social status in the course of his occupation"

organized crime: a category of transnational, national, or local groupings of highly centralized enterprises run by criminals who intend to engage in illegal activity, most commonly for money and profit. some criminal organizations, such as terrorist groups, are politically motivated.
