练习材料：
Mr. James Scott has a garage in Silbury and now he has just bought another garage in Pinhurst. Pinhurst is only five miles from Silbury, but Mr. Scott cannot get a telephone for his new garage, so he has just bought twelve pigeons. Yesterday, a pigeon carried the first message from Pinhurst to Silbury. The bird covered the distance in three minutes. Up to now, Mr. Scott has sent a great many requests for spare parts and other urgent messages from one garage to the other. In this way, he has begun his own private telephone service.

任务配置：L0+L1
知识点：
The bird covered the distance in three minutes.
cover有覆盖的意思，在这里做翻译的话，我认为可以翻译成“鸽子用了三分钟飞完全程”。如果只用覆盖这个意思来翻的话，非常别扭，并且翻不出自然的感觉。
练习感悟：
倒数第二句话，非常长，读的时候舌头差点打结，长句子读起来断句很重要，不然读的节奏很奇怪，自己也累。加油啦！
