Commas Test Prep 1

$\boxed{1}$Ahoy do you know about pirates?

When people $\boxed{2}$ think of pirates, they tend to picture Captain Hook. In the past 10 $\boxed{3}$years even more comically, they tend to think of the actor $\boxed{4}$Johnny Depp who famously played a pirate in the Pirates of the Carribean.  Because Pirates of the Carribean has been one of the most popular pirate $\boxed{5}$franchises in history Johnny Depp is the pirate of a generation.

While pirates are popular villians $\boxed{6}$in fairy tales, they have also been important figures in history.  In the Carribean, the region made famous in part by Disney's take on its pirates$\boxed{7}$in amusement parks and movies, pirates were a form of importer. Pirates may have been lawless but they also provided early towns $\boxed{8}$ with food, cloth, rum and other supplies. 

$\boxed{9}$Pirates, of course did not always come by their good fairly.  They were feared because they robbed other $\boxed{10}$ships and did not mind taking other sailors captive or hostage. In an era in which shipping was dangerous $\boxed{11}$for all, pirates took risk to the greatest $\boxed{12}$  extremes but they also constributed to the economies of the lands they $\boxed{13}$bought, and sold from. 

Today's pirates remain outlaws. $\boxed{14}$ Today they are most likely to be $\boxed{15}$found, not in the Carribean Isles, but on the eastern coast of Africa.  Somali pirates $\boxed{16}$  are well-known, feared and storied.  They have been known to board civilian and miliary ships $\boxed{17}$ alike, and they tend to be well-armed. Any shipper worth his or her salt in the Arabian Sea or Indian ocean knows to keepa good eye out for modern-day pirates.  $\boxed{18}$ I suspect, nowadays they do not wear eye patches.
