The Net Cost of Making a Name for Yourself
Companies are paying up to $10,000 to register a domain name1 on the Internet even though there is no guarantee that they will get the name they want.
The task of registering domains ending in . com, . org, . edu and . net is at present contracted out by the US government to the Virginia-based company Network Solutions. The contract runs out2 this year, and the government wants to bring in a different scheme.
But last year, an ad hoc3 committee of the Internet’s great and good4 revealed its own plan. This involved setting up seven new domains, each indicating the kind of business or organisation using that name5. The committee recruited 88 companies around the world to act as registrars for its . firm, . shop, . web, . arts, . rec, . info and .nom domains. The US government has still to give the system its blessing6, and may yet push ahead with7 its original scheme. Despite this, the 88 registrars have heen taking applications for several months. They are due to8 start registering names this month with the Internet Council of Registrars, which grew out of the ad hoc committee.
To prevent conflicting names from being registered, the council will take one name from each registrar in turn before going back for the second name in their queues, and so on. This has led to a flourishing trade, with companies trying to buy a place near the head of the queue. Global Names of Singapore is charging $10,000 to make sure a request for a name is the first one it sends off to the central database. Other registrars are charging nonrefundable deposits for places at the top of the queue. David Maher, chairman of the Policy Oversight Committee that is helping to set up and oversee the system, says that all registrars are subject to9 local laws regarding consumer protection and competition. But he says that the committee “will not act as an enforcement body10 in this area.” 詞匯： domain /dEu5mein/n.領(lǐng)域，范圍 queue /kju:/n.(排隊(duì)等候的)隊(duì)伍 scheme /ski:m/n.計(jì)劃.方案 nonrefundable /9nCnrI`fQndEbl/adj.不能退款的 ad hoc /5Ad5hCk/adj.專門的，特別的 oversee /5EuvE5si:/v.監(jiān)督，監(jiān)管registrar /7redVis5trB:/n.注冊(cè)處 注釋:

3. ad hoc: 特別(的)，專門的(地)。源于拉丁語。
4. the great and good: (國(guó)際互聯(lián)網(wǎng)的 )頭面人物，大人物，佼佼者
5. each indicating the kind of business or organisation using that name：是帶有自己的主語 each的獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)，起伴隨狀態(tài)的作用。

答案與題解 :
1. B從第二段可知， .edu等四個(gè)域名已由美國(guó)政府承包給 the company Network Solutions，目前的所有權(quán)或是
使用權(quán)仍在該公司。
2. B 從文章第三段中 The US government has still to give the system its blessing …這句話可知，對(duì)題中所列出
的七個(gè)域名美國(guó)政府并不參與其運(yùn)作。
3. B通過昀后一段第三、四句可得出答案。
4. A 從昀后一段可找出答案。 Policy Oversight Committee只不過起構(gòu)建域名注冊(cè)系統(tǒng)以及監(jiān)督的作用，文中并
未提及注冊(cè)域名需得到他們的同意。
5. B 這里的“net”是一個(gè)雙關(guān)語，它可解釋為“凈”，如: net cost (凈代價(jià))。同時(shí)還有“網(wǎng)”的意思，如 : Internet。
從本文判斷，后者的意義是主要的.。所以選項(xiàng) B應(yīng)是昀恰當(dāng)?shù)摹?/p>
