选项 A、common
B、inferior
C、ordinary
D、quality
答案D
解析 语义衔接题。本句句意为：不要说分析病人的病例了，仅仅接触病人病例都是困难的，这些困难原本是不该有的，它们妨碍了我们提供优质服务。该段首句就提到了我们的医疗服务较差。而没有病人病例，对病人一无所知显然是作者认为造成较差医疗服务的原因，即它们影响了我们提供高质量的服务。quality意为"质量"，与inferior相对应，符合上下文语义逻辑关系。common意为"普通的"，也有"劣质的"之意，inferior意为"较差的"，虽然文章中提到了医疗服务较差，但这里因为提到了hinder us from providing(妨碍了我们提供)，所以不能填入具有"较差的"之意的词汇；ordinary意为"普通的"，文章从开始就批评医疗服务较差，这里没有涉及医疗服务普通的问题，故排除此项。
