The same corpus can be used consequently by many researchers, for example, in word sense
disambiguation. By comparing these disambiguation statistics one can get an idea about any
improvements in the disambiguation application(s), method(s) being used. Naturally, if
different corpora were used it would not give an accurate picture, but some corpora are
better suited for certain purposes than some others.
