参考答案: A

参考解析: 考查二语习得。二语习得者在学习外语的过程中很容易受到母语的影响。如果外语和母语有相似之处，母语便可有利于外语学习，这叫作正迁移(positive transfer，也叫facilitation)；如果外语和母语有不同之处，母语便会阻碍外语的学习，这叫作负迁移(negative transfer，也叫interference)，差异越大，影响越大。题干例子便是负迁移的表现，因为汉语中谓语动词没有第三人称单数形式。故选A。外语习得中还有一些错误．不能用母语的影响来解释，比如He speaked English．这个例子，只能说是学习者过度应用了语法规则，这种现象叫作overgeneralization。语用错误(pragmatic failure)则是按照本民族的文化习惯来表达，结果违反了目的语国家的文化习俗，比如和外国人见面时打招呼：“Have you had dinner?”
