Read the following paragraph and write down which words indicate the author’s opinion. Also explain what his opinion is. There is the first problem with tipping: the more discretion you have in the matter the more unpleasant it is. Tipping is an aristocratic conceit—‘There you go, my good man, buy your starving family a loaf ’—best left to an aristocratic age.

But no sane, well-adjusted human being cares to sit around and evaluate the performance of some beleaguered coffee vendor.
