-ed vs -ing
Adjectives that end with -ed talk about one's own feelings, whereas adjectives that end with -ing talk about a person, a thing or a situation that causes one's feelings.
For example:
The movie was boring (so I felt bored).
This book is so interesting (so I am interested in the book).
My boyfriend has a very annoying habit (so I am annoyed).
English usage can be confusing (so a lot of students are confused).
My husband's job promotion was surprising (so we were very surprised).
The baseball game between the Giants and the Tigers was exciting (so the fans were excited).

Hear vs Listen to
When I open the windows, I can hear birds singing and dogs barking.
I enjoy listening to Japanese pop music.
"Hear" is an "inactive" verb. You don't have to actively think about the action of "hearing".
"Listen to" is an "active" verb. You have to actively think about the action of "listening". You have to want to do it.

Too vs Very
What's the difference between the following two sentences?
It's very cold.
It's too cold.
The first sentence is just a statement. The second sentence, however, implies some sort of difficulty. For example, maybe it's too cold so we can't go outside.
Another example:
She is very busy.
She is too busy.
Again. The first sentence is just a statement, but the second sentence means something more. Maybe she is too busy so she has no time to study, or maybe she is too busy so she cannot come to the party this weekend...
So, remember, when we use "too", it has a negative feeling; it implies that there is some kind of problem. After all, too much of something is not good!

See vs Look at vs Watch
Well, "see" is an "inactive" verb. So long as your eyes are open, you don't have to actively think about the action of "seeing".
"Look at" and "watch" are "active" verbs. You have to actively think about the action of "looking" and "watching". You have to want to do it.
"Look at" is usually used when the action lasts for a short time, while "watch" is used for actions that last for a longer period of time.
"Look at" and "watch" are "active" verbs. You have to actively think about the action of "looking" and "watching". You have to want to do it.
