2．Dick Bruna，the beloved author best known as the creator of Miffy，the popular little rabbit，has died aged 89.The Dutch illustrator（插图画家）and writer died on Thursday 16 February，his publisher Mercis said in a statement，and leaves behind more than 120 books which sold over 85 million copies.
Bruna was born into a family of publishers in Utrecht.According to The Guardian，he created more than 100 posters and around 2，000 book jackets for his family' s company.His first Miffy books，which were inspired by a story he told his own son，were published in 1955 with Miffy going under the name Nijintje.The character would go on to become a "merchandising juggernaut（衍生品神话）"，one that featured children's toys，clothes and other merchandise sold around the world.
"He was very much loved around the world.I remember travelling with him to Australia，to New Zealand，to Japan.Wherever he would go people would queue up for signing sessions（签售会）of his books，"Mercis spokesperson Marja Kerkhof said. "They are very clear pictures，and he leaves so much out.He goes to the essence（本质） of things，and then of course there are his very strong，powerful primary colours.Even today if you see them in a store，you would think： 'Hey，this looks different to a lot of other things out there. ' There is no clutter （混乱）；it's all very clear. "
Bruna was loved most of all in his birthplace，Utrecht where，as one fan pointed out，there is even a traffic light shaped like Miffy in Bruna' s honour.A museum in Utrecht posted the news of his death with a picture of Bruna's beloved character：arms behind her back，and a single tear below her left eye.

3．When you think of Tokyo as a place to .go on holiday，your mind will most likely turn to electronics，shopping and delicious food.However，one of the more unusual tourist spots in this city of 9.2 million is the Tsukiji Fish Market，which has been selling fish for over 400 years right in the centre of this busy city.
This is no ordinary market.It opens at 3.00 am when fish and other sea life caught from the oceans，seas and rivers from all over the world are delivered to 900 fish dealers.Over 400 different types of seafood are available from cheap seaweed to the world's most expensive caviar.It is most famous though for the striking tuna auctions（金枪鱼拍卖）that take place between5.20 am and 10.00 am.
Over 2，000 tons of marine produce are sold every day.This amounts to over US＄5.9 billion of business per year.
The fish market is divided into two different places.The inner market is where most of the wholesale business is done.Only registered（注册的）traders are allowed there，and that's where the famous tuna auctions take place.In the outer market，retail（零售的）shops and restaurants are open to the general public.There you can taste some of the freshest sashimi in the world-as long as you like uncooked fish for breakfast.Given that the market operates from such an early hour and most of its business is completed by mid-morning，it is surprising to find that the fish market has become a highly popular tourist attraction.Because it is so busy，accidents have happened in the past，so the number of tourists is restricted each day.But once inside，they are able to see some of the most expensive frozen tuna and swordfish being examined by the experts and then cut up with large saws（锯子）.
（1）What is the Tsukiji Fish Market best known for？
A．Its fair prices.

（2）In what way is the inner market different from the outer one？
