The correct answer is hearing is the same as listening.

This is a myth about listening - the fact that if you hear something, it automatically means that you understood and remembered what the other person told you, which is obviously not true. In order to really hear something, you need to listen to that person attentively, and show them that you are indeed listening to them.
