问题     In order to learn a foreign language well, it is necessary to overcome the fear of making mistakes. If the primary goal of language use is communication, the mistakes are secondary consideration that may be dealt with gradually as awareness of those mistakes increases. On the other hand, students should not ignore their mistakes. The language learner may observe how native speakers express themselves, and how native expressions differ from the way the learner might say them. For example, a Spanish speaker who has been saying "I do it" to express willingness to do something in the immediate future, could, by interacting with native speakers of English, observe that native speakers actually say "I’ll do it". The resulting discrepancy can serve as a basis for the student to modify his way of using the present tense in English. But a student who is unwilling to interact in the first place would lose this opportunity to learn by trial and error.
The author’s major conclusion about the function of mistakes in foreign language learning is that________.

选项 A、mistakes do not interfere with communication
B、learners are often very afraid of making mistakes
C、mistakes are not important in the process of learning a language
D、making mistakes can help the learner discover the rules of the language

答案D

解析 文章最后一句“But a student who is unwilling to interact in the first place would lose this opportunity to learn by trial and error.”。本题是推断题。由定位句,一个不愿意用语言交流的学生会失去在错误中学习的机会。前面又列举了像西班牙人在和native speaker的交流中才发现一般现在时的使用不当。因此犯错误能帮助学习者发现语言的规律。故选D。
