Park, Tae-Sook. 2006. The Effects of Natural Exposure on Advanced Korean EFL Learners' English Article Use. Korean Journal of English Language and Linguistics 6-2, 279-305. This paper investigates the effect of natural exposure to English on advanced Korean learners' article use on the basis of the detailed classification of the English article system. Seventy-two advanced Korean college and graduate students participated in this study. They were divided into two groups depending on whether they have an experience of living in English-speaking countries. All the participants completed a questionnaire and a cloze test. The results showed that natural exposure to English had a great effect on the use of articles in Type 1 to 4 and the use of the definite article the and the indefinite article a. In terms of specific article usages, natural exposure was closely related to the accurate use of articles concerning E5 ([the] Immediate situational use), E6 ([the] Larger situational use), E8 ([the] Associative anaphoric use), E14 ([a] Attributive indefinites) and E15 ([∅1(p)] Attributive indefinites). Based on the results, this study suggests that for situational use of 'the,' associative anaphoric use, and attributive indefinites, providing much natural input and giving opportunities of interaction in English are recommended in the Korean EFL context. Further, in order to improve the general ability of using articles accurately, advanced learners in Korea are encouraged to be exposed to natural English through mass media, computers, and various audio and video tapes.
