Vending machines (自動(dòng)售貨機(jī)) are very popular now. You can find them here and there. People can buy different things from them, like snacks and soft drinks. Now we can even buy train tickets from it in the train station.

They also sell newspapers in some busy areas. In some places, you can get a can of beer or Coke from the vending machine, but in some others, you can’t.

Some vending machines sell cigarettes (香煙). They are called “cigarettes machines”. With these machines, people can get cigarettes easily. These machines once (曾經(jīng)) were popular in the United States. But they are not good for children. So you can’t see them now. In many areas in the United States, only some clubs and bars (酒吧) have cigarette machines, because children can never get into these places.
