[英文成語] CAN'T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER. - 學習英語成語：不可以貌取人
Can't judge a book by its cover.
/kɑːnt dʒʌdʒ ə bʊk baɪ ɪts ˈkʌvər/
不可以貌取人
「Can't judge a book by its cover」這成語的意思是不能僅憑外表來評判一個人或事物的價值。想像一下在書店裡，有些書的封面可能非常華麗，但內容可能平淡無奇；同樣，有些封面設計簡單的書，內容卻可能豐富精彩。人和事物也是一樣，外表的華麗或樸實並不能完全代表其內在的品質。例如，在招聘過程中，僅憑候選人的外觀和初印象來做出決定是不公正的。這個成語教導我們在作出評價之前，應該深入了解事物的本質，不應有先入為主的成見。
