[解题思路]
NAS的报告出现在文章的第七段，该段最后一句话说“It identifies the undertreatment of pain and the aggressive use of “ineffectual and forced medical procedures that may prolong and even dishonor the period of dying" as the twin problems of end-of-life care”(报告指出了医院临终关怀护理中存在的两个问题：对减轻病痛处理不力和大胆使用“无效而强制性的医疗程序，这些程序可能会延长死亡期，甚至会让死亡期难堪”)，因此其中一个问题是对病痛的处理不力，答案显然为B。其他三项内容都与该报告无关。
