10.The village of Hengly was going to have the Bean Olympics.It was a competition to see which kind of bean would grow the fastest and tallest.Everybody was excited.They couldn't waited to show their best plants.Cassie knew clearly which bean she would choose for the competition,for her family had planted a special"family bean."It was a flat bean that her greatgrandparents had brought from Sicily.Her grandmother planted the beans every year and served them at many meals.Cassie was sure they would be unbeatable beans.
However,the plan did not work out that way.Although Cassie's bean plants looked healthy with beautiful purple flowers,they did not grow as fast or climb as high as any of her neighbors'.These people chose beans from seed(种子)stores.Their beans had wonderful names like"Rocket"or"Top Crop."One type was even named"King's Bean."That was the bean Ivan planted,and his plants climbed almost to the top of the fence.Cassie's plants were just near the middle of the fence.
On the day of the competition,Cassie was disappointed that her beans were in last place.Ivan laughed at hr beans and said she could win a prize for the slowest,shortest beans.
The organizer,Mr.Williams,handed out medals for the fastest-growing and the tallest beans plants."Now there remains only one final test,and it is just as important:the taste test."
Mr.Williams cooked the beans from each competitor and chose five experienced villagers as judges(裁判).
Cassie was nervous.Would her family beans lose another time?
After the judges tasted the beans,Mr.Williams counted the results."We have a winner,"Mr.Williams announced."The judges all agree that Cassie's beans are the winner."
Cassiegrinned at this unexpected result.Many of her neighbors,even Ivan asked for her seeds.They were all in favor of the good-tasting beans even though they didn't grow fast or very tall.

分析 全文大意:
Hengly村庄将进行一场"种豆奥运会".它是一场看哪种豆子生长地最快,最高的比赛.每个人都很兴奋.他们迫不及待地想展示他们最好的豆子.Cassie清楚地知道她会选择哪种豆子参加比赛.因为她的家里种了一种特殊的"家庭豆".是她的曾祖父母从西西里岛带来的一种扁豆.她的奶奶每年都种这种豆子,用这种豆子款待家人.Cassie确信他们将是无与伦比的豆子.但事实并不像计划的那样.尽管Cassie的豆子看起来健康开着紫色的花,但是他们不如邻居的长得快,爬的高.这些人从种子商店选的种子.他们的种子有着神奇的名字像"火箭",一种甚至被命名为"国王的豆子".那是Ivan种的豆子,几乎爬到栅栏的顶部.Cassie种的豆子仅仅在栅栏的中间位置.在比赛那天Cassie很失望,她的豆子得了最后一名.Ivan嘲笑她的豆子说她能获得长得最慢,最矮的奖.组织者William先生为长得最快和最高的豆子颁发了奖.并宣布最后一项检验,即味道检验,它也同样重要.William先生烹制了每个参赛者的豆子,选了五名有经验的村民做裁判.Cassie 很不安,她家庭的豆子会再次失败吗?裁判们品尝完豆子之后,William先生宣布结果Cassie家的豆子获胜.Cassie听到这个意料之外的结果裂开嘴笑了.她的很多邻居甚至Ivan都向她要种子.他们都支持这种美味的种子,尽管它长不快也长不高.
