Appear not/be be dispense have
The world’s first cash machine appeared at a branch of Barclays Bank in north London in June 1967. He cash machine was the first and last invention of John Shepherd- Barron. ‘In those days, it wasn’t possible to get money when the bank was closed. One day, I suddenly had the idea of having a machine similar to a drinks machine that dispensed cash, not drinks. It wasn’t a very simple idea, explained Mr Shepherd_Barron.
Be like pay sign not/spend
The chief executive of Barclays Bank at the time liked the idea and immediately signed a contract with Mr Shephard-Barron. The first machines were out a maximum of £10 a time. ‘But we paid much in those days and that didn’t spend enough for the weekend,’ Mr Shephard-Barron remembers.
Be develop not/exist insert
At the time of invention of the cash machine, plastic cards didn’t exist, so customers developed paper cheques into the machines. But these were fragile and difficult to read, so the banks inserted the plastic cash card.
Become not/agree say want
Another by-product of the cash machine was the PIN (Personal Idntification Number). Mr Shepherd- Barron originally said a six-digit number, but his wife, Caroline, didn’ agree. ‘During breakfast one morning, she wanted four numbers was the maximum she could remember so, because of my wife, four digits became the world standard,’ he laughs.

I work as a fitness instructor in a gym. I go to the gym almost every day – either to teach or to exercise. I like learning new types of exercise. At the moment I’m learning yoga and I’m really enjoying it. I work out at the gym probably three times a week, and I often go swimming afterwards. This month I’m training a bit harder because I want to do half-marathon in a couple of months. I’m really happy because I am getting better. I don’t exercise all the time, obviously! I need to relax and rest, too. My best friend and I go to the cinema once or twice a week, and we often cook nice meals together.
