Which bit is confusing you?
I guess when they say sole plate they really mean a wall plate which is typically a 100mm wide x 50mm high timber batten that sits on top of the wall, the joists sit on this wall plate:
The wall plate is then held down on the wall with metal straps that stop the whole roof from being blown away in a times of high winds:
