It was a hot summer day that found me running down the street with a dollar in my sweaty hand. The closer I got to Sam & Joe's Stationery Store, the more excited I was. After all, a dollar was a tidy sum for an 11-year-old boy in 1961.
Out of breath, I swung open the door and got a blast of cold air that instantly cooled me off. I was in a place of pure happiness. Sam & Joe's had it all一books, candy, toys, baseball cards, puzzles and games. I went directly to the bar and ordered a bottle of soda. There I sat, considering my next move.
Books always came first. I picked out five titles. Next came the candy, rows and rows of it. I chose five candy bars, which brought my total to 75 cents. Then a bottle of cold orange juice, a bag of chips and a pack of Ted Williams baseball cards. After paying the clerk, I still had 5 cents.
I hurried directly to my backyard, where an apple tree patiently waited for me. There, sitting in the shade against its strong trunk, I read my books, ate my candy and drank my orange juice.
As I sat in my own personal heaven, I started thinking about having more. That's when a fantastic life-changing idea popped into head: If I could get more money, could buy more books l liked. buy anything l wanted. That's how it all started.

Under the apple tree in his backyard。
由于personal heaven出现在最后一段的第一句话,又因为第一句话就说“随着我坐在我的personal heaven”可知,前文提到过personal heaven,只是前文没有点明。但从前一段I hurried directly to可以推断出,作者很喜欢这个地方。再根据字数,推断出答案应该不是my backyard这么短的,故得出Under the apple tree in his backyard。
