multistory

The abbey was a maze of multistory wings, each added in a differing century, the architecture conspiring to create a jumbled complex that now housed four hundred brothers..修道院的结构是迷宫似的多层侧翼，每个侧翼都在不同的世纪里被添上，那建筑拼成一混乱的复合体，里面现在住着四百多个圣殿武士。

One-story homes that are "tied together" -- with the roof bolted to the walls and the walls to the foundation -- tend to survive earthquakes and windstorms better than multistory homes that aren't..单层的楼房就像“绑在一起”--屋顶，墙和地基连成一体，它抗击地震和风暴的能力比多层的楼房要高得多。
