“Fathers should be neither seen nor heard，” wrote Oscar Wilde.“This is the only proper basis for family life.” It's hard to say what Wilde would have thought of this week's cover photo or the pictures inside of dads and their children.Several clearly oppose the outdated idea of fathers as detached(使分開) from the parenting process and that's just what the photographers intended.

Gregory Heisler，who did the cover photograph，says he wanted the image to show genuine affections.So，rather than use professional models，he went out and found some “real dads and their real kids”. Adds Heisler, “Instead of doing some skilful，over­produced photographs，I wanted something more authentic to the experience of being a father.” This isn't the first time that Heisler，39，has conveyed complex ideas for the cover of TIME.His photographs have decorated the front of the magazine some 20 times，ranging from Olympic athlete Jackie Joyner­Kersee and director Davis Lynch to former President George Bush and Ted Turner for “Man of the Year” issues in 1991 and 1992，respectively.But this week's TIME cover has special meaning，he says，because he and his wife had their first child，Lucy，16 months ago.

The pictures appearing inside were all done by photographer Jeffrey Lowe.Although Lowe has not experienced fatherhood yet，he observed many warm moments of parenting by spending a lot of private time with each dad and child.Of all the pictures，Lowe was most deeply touched by the father­to­be embracing his pregnant wife.

While most of the credit for the pictures rightly goes to those behind the camera，cover coordinator(協(xié)調(diào)者) Linda Freeman and assistant picture editor Mary Worrell Bousquette，who work behind the scenes，also deserve praise.Freeman，for instance，had the challenging task of making arrangements for the group portrait of child movie stars that appears on page 62. She says, “My greatest reward is working with these talented artists.”Bousquette edited the pictures that appear inside.“I wanted our story to show the many faces of fatherhood，”she says.At least in this issue，those fathers are seen as well as heard.

20．In this week's TIME the photographers wanted ________．

A．to show Oscar Wilde's view had gone out of date

B．to show honor to the famous playwright Oscar Wilde

C．to support Oscar Wilde's view

D．to say sorry to Oscar Wilde

21．In Oscar Wilde's view，________．

A．fathers should stay actively involved in their children's lives

B．there should be distance between fathers and children in family life

C．what fathers enjoy most is family life

D．fathers aren't sure about what they should do at home

22．Jeffrey Lowe managed to show fathers' feelings accurately in his photos by ________．

A．trying to experience fatherhood himself

B．spending most of his time with his pregnant wife

C．studying the relationship between each member in a family

D．mixing with many fathers and their children

23．Which of the following is TRUE according to this passage?

A．Heisler has conveyed complex ideas for the cover of TIME several times.

B．Mary Worrell Bousquette is a cover coordinator.

C．Lowe was most deeply touched by his pregnant wife.

D．The author praises the work by the photographers and the editors.
