In this paper, we use some common prepositions (in, with, from, to, to, to, to) which are the high frequency of using and errors as the scope. Survey 102 Madagascar students in early, middle and senior. Research the order of common prepositions and preposition acquisition using qualitative and quantitative approach, such as the forecast, questionnaires, form of operation framework and so on. and analysis of common preposition acquisition characteristics. To the objective order of acquisition, "in" has the lowest degree of difficulty, the most easily learned; followed by "with"; and "to" "for" are the most difficult to acquised. To the subjective order of acquisition, the "in" "with" "to" are easy to acquired, "from" "to" "for" are difficult to grasp. To the difficulty for acquisition, the preposition framework "from ... ... to ... ..." "for... ..." are difficult to acquisition. "for" " It seems... ..." the most difficult to acquised. Omission and wrong order of prepositions have high appearance, the difference between verbs and prepositions is also difficult for Madagascar students. Meanwhile, we make a comparison between Madagascar students in China to Madagascar students in the Confucius Institute, In the syntax and pragmatics preposition usage, the error rate in the initial stage of the Madagscar students learing in China is higher than the Confucius Institute students, but less than Confucius Institute students in the middle stage. The error rate in the early and intermediate stages of the students learning in China have big differences, but the Confucius Institute students are similar.Secondly, the second questionnaire focused on error analysis, using three kinds of questions as fill in the blank with the choice of words, wrong judgments and make sentences. In the analysis we find the acquisition of similar prepositions and prepositions framework are quite bad, the students often misuse these prepositions. Three kinds of questions have high rate of mistakes.Of similar prepositions "to, toward, to""as, in order, because" and " it seems ... ..."" for ... ...""... from ... to" to discrimination and error analysis, and to bias of the reasons, such as negative transference, the target language interference(difficulty and students limited knowledge of the target language analogy mechanism),the preparation of teaching materials and teaching guide shortcomings and insufficient.Finally, we investigate a typical textbook, "Chinese as foreign language undergraduate textbook series"about in the arrangements and the write of preposition, point the shortage like noted easy,chasm,not timely exercise and so on. Meanwhile, give some proposals for teaching,such as make a prediction of stress and diffficulty in Prepositions and preposition used the framework, adhere to the principles of comparation between Chinese and French,improve the reproduction rate, focus on chapter instruction, the combination of context and pragmatics, attention to summarized and Designed .And make a teaching design of"to"as an example.
