Note
One -ing form does two jobs here. After a form of be it builds the progressive (she was cashing her paycheck when the bank closed). Standing alone it names the act itself, yet it can still take a direct object the way the verb does: cashing a check, cashing the bonds. It also carries the verb's slang sense of taking a payout from a tournament, as in a player cashing in several events.
