Cassie knew clearly which bean she would choose for the petition, 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 Cassie39。s bean plants looked healthy with beautiful purple flowers, they did not grow as fast or climb as high as any of her neighbours. These people chose beans from seed（種子）shops. Their beans had wonderful names like Rocket or Top Crop. One type was even named King39。s Bean. That was the bean Ivan planted, and his plants climbed almost to the top of the fence. Cassie39。s plants were just near the middle of the fence. On the day of the petition, Cassie was disappointed that her beans were in last place. Ivan laughed at her beans and said she could win a prize for the slowest, shortest bean. The organizer, Mr Williams, handed out medals for the fastestgrowing and the tallest bean plants. Now there remains only one final test, and it is just as important: the taste test. Mr Williams cooked the beans from each petitor 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.
