Hearing is when you hear a sound. You know there's been a sound, but you weren't trying to hear it.
Listening is things you are trying to hear. When you're having a conversation, you listen to the person talking because you're trying to hear what they're saying. If you just hear what they're saying then you're not really paying attention.
