B Correct answer
Explanation

The pear grows inside the bottle. Farmers place bottles over small pear blossoms on the branch while the fruit is still tiny. The pear then matures to full size inside the bottle, which is later filled with brandy. The bottle neck is wide enough to slip over the young fruit, but the fully grown pear cannot be removed without cutting the bottle or pear.
