For example,if there is ten subdirectories named sub1~sub10(each

rsync -av --delete --include "/sub2/" --include "/sub3/" /
MyFolder/ /dest/
this seems to sync other directories and files too.
The reason that doesn't work is because include only cancels out an
exclude. Since you've not excluded anything, the include does
nothing. You could add an --exclude '/*' if you wanted to do this
with include/excludes:
rsync -av --delete --include "/sub2/" --include "/sub3/"--exclude '/
*' /MyFolder/ /dest/
However,
rsync -av --delete /MyFolder/sub2 /MyFolder/sub3 /dest
is probably the simplest (and therefore best) solution.
