A StorytellerIn my early 20s, after a year and a half in England, and four months in France, I returned to the United States and got a job at a camp in northern Virginia. My 1 that summer was Dan from Mississippi, and I am from Rhode Island. We worked together with a group of boys from 12 to 14 years old. Ive always been a bit untidy, but Dan was 2 and clean, even after a night in the woods with our campers. We could not have been more different, but we got on because we shared the same 3 of humor.At the end of the summer, a few of us went to 4 a cave in West Virginia and got stuck in the cave for the night. It wasn’t as dramatic as it sounds. The park rangers had told us to stay there if anything happened. They knew where we were going, and when we should have been back. Dan hurt his right foot badly. So we had to 5 the night in the cave. Food and water were not a problem, but we turned off our lights to save power. In the distance, we could hear the sound of running water.To 6 the time, we told stories. That night in the cave we moved from one family story to another. As the night wore on, I remembered more and more. I was not alone–the cave, the blue light and the flowing water released stories and memories that we had never revealed to anyone. It was as if a river of stories had started flowing in each of us. When the rangers came the next morning, we didn’t want to 7 . "Cant we just tell a few more stories?"

Помогите перевести текст) TEXT 11 A. TYPES OF BUILDINGS The majority of building codes divide buildings into classes based upon the manner of their construction, use, or occupancy. The following division into classes applies to the manner of construction: 1. Frame construction 2. Nonfireproof constructions: (a) Ordinary construction; (b) Slow-burning construction 3. Fireproof construction. . frame construction embraces all buildings. with exterior walls of wooden framework sheathed with wood shingles or sidlng, veneered with brick, stone, or terra cotta; or covered with stucco or sheet metal." Such buildings naturally have floors and partitions of wood and are considered as comprising the most inflammable type of construction. Nonfireproof construction includes all buildings with exterior walls of masonry but with wood floor construction and partitions,,. Slow-burning conduction designates heavy timber framing designed as far as possible to be fire resistant,the heavy beams and griders of large dimention proving far less inflammable than the slender joists of ordinary construction. Fireproof construction includes all buildings constructed of incombustible material throughout, with floors of iron, steel, or renirorced concrete beams, filled in between with terra cotta or other masonry arches or with concrete slabs. Wood may be used only for under and upper floors, window and door frames ,sash,doors, and interior finish . In buildings of great height the flooring must be of incombustible material and the sash, doors, frames, and interior finish of metal. Wire glass is used in the windows, and all structural and reinforced steel must be surrounded with fireproof material, such as hollow terra cotta and gypsum tile to protect the steel from the weakening effect of great heat. 2
