其实很简单,受强调被动的感觉。我受够了。我受冤枉了。 收强调接。我收到一封邮件。希望你能理解。

Both 受 and 收 means "receiving" but in different ways. 收 is "to receive by you directly". 我收徒弟, I am TAKING IN students, 我收到您信, I RECEIVED your letter. 道士收怪 = The priest SUBDUED the demon. 受 = subjected to / to endure/to bear / to stand/ to be received (usually from a higher ranking status than the receiver) 受教 = TO BE RECEIVED teachings (from someone deemed higher than the receiver) 受伤 = SUFFERED harm/injury 受天命 = TO ENDURE the will of Heaven 受罪 = TO BEAR/TO SUFFER the punishment 恩受於你 = gratitude/favor/kindness RECEIVED from you. Here "received" becomes passive because of the noun preceeding it.

受 is like something comes to me against my willing or awareness, I'm passively received. something mentally or virtually 收 receive action which is more actively, physically eg. 最近家里的一些变故,让我心里承受了很大的心理压力,健康也受到了影响,但是我同时也收到了很多朋友鼓励的信件和电话, 让我的心情好了很多。
