Looking verses Presentig in Descriptive language

Evaluate Sellar’s following argument:
8. “I shall now examine briefly a heterodox suggestion by, for example, Ayer{1} to the effect that discourse about sense data is, so to speak, another language, a language contrived by the epistemologist, for the situations which the plain man describes by means of such locutions as "Now the book looks green to me" and "There seems to be a red and triangular object over there." The core of this suggestion is the idea that the vocabulary of sense data embodies no increase in the content of descriptive discourse, as over and against the plain man’s language of physical objects in Space and Time, and the properties they have and appear to have. For it holds that sentences of the form
X presents S with a ? sense datum
are simply stipulated to have the same force as sentences of the form
X looks ? to S.

The tomato presents S with a bulgy red sense-datum" would be the contrived counterpart of "The tomato looks red and bulgy to S" and would mean exactly what the latter means for the simple reason that it was stipulated to do so.”
