答案与题解：
1.D 空白处的前一句举了一位46岁妇女在肾移植手术以后拒服必要的药物的例子。空白处的后一句说拒绝与医务人员合作的病人会给自己、给社会带来什么害处。我们必须注意到后一句的病人是泛指的，当然应该包括这位49岁的妇女在内，因此将D(像这样不合作的事情并非仅此一例)填入空白处可以将上下文更完美地连接起来。
2.E 空白处的前一句说道应该更多地强调心理学在药物治疗中的作用。E说有证据表明，对缺乏安全感的病人进行心理治疗可增加医患之间的合作。前后两句话是连贯的，而且they added 还在一定程度上起到了提示作用，故E为最佳选项。
3.F 空白处的前一句讲了一个小男孩在做心脏移植手术前脾气非常暴躁的故事。空白处的后偶棉几句叙述了如何解决这个小男孩的心理障碍问题，F说“后来这种愤怒被人物是他要正确作为一个病人的权利”，正好起着承上启下的作用。由于医务人员有这种认识才有后面的好结果。
