单选题 Just as a book is often judged ______ by the quality and appearance of its cover, a person is judged immediately by his appearance.

【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】[解析] 根据题干可判断,所填词应与appearance相互照应。[C]outwardly指“表面地,外观上地”,与 appearance“外表”都指外在的东西、意思类似,符合题意,故为答案。[A]previously“以前”、[B]uniquely“独特地”、[D]initially“最初的”均不符合题意。
