根据短文编三个简单的英文问题并给出答案.
A pirate became captain of a ship if he was elected by the crew.The captain was only in command of the ship either when attacking another ship or when another ship attacked them.He worked as a regular crew member when the ship was not in battle.If the captain would not attack other ships and take booty,then he was removed as captain.
Pirates were punished in different ways depending on which rule was broken.Sometimes they were tied to the mast of a ship and whipped.Other times they were hung by either the quartermaster or when they were captured by the Spanish or other enemy.One really gruesome way of punishing a pirate was to maroon them on a deserted island without food or water and be left to die a slow death.
