J. Ryan为女性。另两本书看不出作者的性别，因此说至少有两本的作者为女性。【小题2】D细节理解题。根据题中model及health到文中去找信息源。第四段Dr Steven Hotze is leading a wellness revolution that advances a new model of health care.……正在率领一次推进卫生保健新模式的健康革命。四本书中只有这一本提到health,因此，就算不懂这一段中某些句子的意思，也可以确认答案为D。【小题3】C细节理解题。根据题中the author’s own need…happiness到文中去找信息源。第二段Ryan’s own desire to be happier first led(引领) her to study what is known about happiness…Ryan自己想要更加幸福的欲望引领她去研究……，由此可知答案为C。
