Question

【題目】No school, no homework, travel on the sea, have adventures all the time. Sounds interesting? That may be a pirate’s (海盜) life in movies. But what do pirates do in real life?

Pirates are robbers (強盜) on the water. As long as there has been trade on the sea, there have been pirates.

Vikings (維京人) were early pirates in Northern Europe from the 8th to the 11th century. They were strong and good at fighting. From 1650 to 1720, there were many famous and scary pirates such as Blackbeard (his real name was Edward Teach) and Jack Rackham

In Eastern Asia, Japanese pirates were common in the 13th and 14th centuries. Pirates today, such as the Somali pirates, have a bad reputation (名聲). They rob ships and catch people to ask for more money.

海盜已經(jīng)成為流行文化的一部分。In the story of Peter Pan, Captain Hook is scary but acts like a gentleman. He is famous for wearing a hook (鉤子) and a big hat with a feather (羽毛). The Disney movies made people more interested in pirates. There is even an international festival called Talk Like a Pirate Day. People around the world celebrate this festival on September 19 each year.
