Kweichow Moutai, the company that makes the eponymous (同名的) liquor, is China’s most valuable firm outside of technology. Globally, its market cap has surpassed Coca-Cola, which had long held the 【小题1】 as the world’s largest beverage maker.

Apart from the Chinese diaspora (移民社区), however, Moutai is still 【小题2】 unknown overseas. Almost all — about 97% — of its sales come from China alone, according to its financial reports.

So how is a company that sells its products 【小题3】 in just one country now worth more than some longstanding global corporations? And can Kweichow Moutai succeed in 【小题4】 to non-Chinese consumers?

Moutai is named after Maotai, a picturesque small town in the southwestern Chinese province of Guizhou. This is where the company says its baijiu — distilled (蒸馏) from fermented (发酵的) sorghum and rice — gets the magic 【小题5】.

According to the Moutai Museum, environmental factors, such as the town’s climate and seasonal changes in the water of the local river, help give the liquor its unique taste and is 【小题6】 to the production process.

Known as the favorite tipple of Mao Zedong, founder of Communist China, and as the ‘drink of 【小题7】,’ it was famously used to welcome former US President Richard Nixon on his historic trip to China in 1972, and again in 2013 when Chinese President Xi Jinping met with his US counterpart, Barack Obama, in California.

Being part of so many major public events in China ‘has really 【小题8】 the brand in the national consciousness,’ said Cavender, the managing director of China Market Research Group.

Today, the brand is seen more as a 【小题9】 status symbol. Some customers buy it not to drink, but to keep as investments. Limited-edition cases are collected and showcased by international auction houses, like Christie’s, which says that some bottles can 【小题10】 more than $40,000 each.

“It’s also been a tremendous advantage during an economically tough year: wealthy consumers who are spending less on travel may splurge more on liquor,” Cavender said.

Many tourists nowadays walk around carrying plastic bottles of water, even in cities. The bottles seem to have become an 【小题1】 fashion accessory(配件), and not only for tourists. 【小题2】, nowadays everyone seems to carry a bottle of water with them【小题3】 they go.

Too Good To Go

Around the country, apps that connect customers to businesses with leftover food have begun to spread. The 【小题1】 is simple: Restaurants and grocery stores throw away huge amounts of food every day. Rather than 【小题2】 it, apps like Too Good To Go and Flashfood help businesses sell it at a reduced price. They claim that the businesses and buyers are helping the environment because the food would otherwise become food waste, a big contributor to climate change.

In the United States, customers in 12 cities can look through restaurants and stores on Too Good To Go, then reserve “surprise bags” that typically cost about $4 to $6 and contain food that would have been 【小题3】 at roughly three times that amount.

Several food waste experts expressed 【小题4】 that these types of apps could help limit the amount of wasted food. And even though charitable organizations often redirect unwanted food from restaurants and grocery stores to food banks and community kitchens, there’s space for all of these kinds of solutions to 【小题5】.

One complication is that, according to interviews with several companies selling on Too Good To Go, at least a few items for sale there aren’t 【小题6】 what buyers might think of as “food waste.” The owner of a Baltimore dessert shop said she considered the app a(n) 【小题7】 tool to reach new customers by selling what she called “little samples.” A beer company owner said he used the app to sell 【小题8】 products, but also sold new flavors there in hopes of attracting new customers.

Mr. Crummie, the Too Good To Go director, said the app 【小题9】 this type of behavior. “If somebody is paying $5, they should be receiving $15 worth of food,” he said. “So it’s not a(n) 【小题10】 platform.”
