A细节理解题。联系第三段“Magicactionsaccompanythewordsspokeninperformingmuchmagic”可知，巫术的活动要伴随着语言，而这些语言又叫做咒语。38．C细节理解题。从第四段“Manytribesbelievefetisheshavemagicpowerbecausespiritsliveintheseobjects.”可知，人们之所以相信物神，是因为他们觉得有精神在里面。39．C主旨大意题。全文讲述了如何实施巫术，这一点从第一段可以看出来。B40．B主旨大意题。从第一段和第二段可知，文章的主要内容是通过让孩子学会开车，通过测试拿到驾照让他们明白自己是成年人了。41．B推理判断题。从第六、七及第八段可推断选B项。42．C细节理解题。在第五段中讲到了买车的理由，如交通是否便利、家庭开支是否允许等方面的原因，但没有提到交通条件方面的原因，故选C。43．C句意
