And then a databased analysis of IL has been also made. All the data came from compositions written by English majors at the same class of Huizhou University when they’re in the first year and in the third year respectively. By the use of quantitative analysis, IL errors from the perspective of language knowledge, intralingual errors, interlingual errors and error sources have been scrutinized. The purpose is to find the distribution changes and frequency changes of IL errors from compositions by the same class at different academic years to gain some insights into English language learning. The findings of this research can be summarized as follows: First-year students, here, are in a transitional stage between “systematic stage” and “emergent stage”, while third-year students are undoubtedly in a systematic stage. Impact of Native language transfer’s learners’ target language learning should not be neglected. Intralingual errors are committed most often by English majors at Huizhou University. On the road to approach target language, the key to learning is to strengthen English grammar basic structure and thoroughly comprehend the shades of words.
