Let me get this straight.
You have orcl.world in your tnsnames.ora and can connect when using orcl.world but not when using orcl. You changed it to orcl.c and could connect when using that. I am guessing that you could not use just orcl in that case but you did not mention this.
If all of the above is true then it looks like you do not have the default domain set in your sqlnet.ora file or its set to something other then world. The .world part is the domain. Either set your domain or use the whole text.

I have a wierd problem to access the database today. If I use the following
sqlplusw system/manager_at_orcl.world, it is ok to connect to the database. But if I use
sqlplusw system/manager_at_orcl
I have the ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name error.
I can change the service name to whatever like orcl.c, then I am still able to connect to the database by using sqlplusw system/manager_at_orcl.c
I don't what's wrong with the service name. Any advice? The tnsnames.ora is listed as the follwing(the database is Oracle 8.1) :

ORCL.world =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = ticket.company.com)(PORT = 1521))

    )
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = ORCL)
    )
  )
