    Designed would be someone sitting down with the intention of creating an item or process to be used in the future. "We designed the safety procedure to ensure nobody was hurt." Devised is more improvisational. To me, it would imply that someone created something useful in a stressful situation. "He devised this handy contraption to trap fish after being trapped on an island." Developed would be something that occurred after a situation arose. "We developed this safety plan after Brandon got trapped on an island and had to catch fish to survive."

    If a player positions themselves cross laterally, the racket seems to be invisible from the dominant eye for much of the swing. That would be my understanding of the sentence.

    This is actually very well written. I don't know that I would change anything. Being that this is an opinion, I feel that this is perfect.

    One is a question, the other is you answering the question. What would you be afraid to do? I would be afraid of doing dangerous things like skydiving or swimming with sharks! To be afraid to do implies the activity or thing may not be scary, but it worries you or scares you To be afraid of doing implies you are scared of doing something

    本を読んでいるこのフレーズを分かりません ”家の前の路地で埃を被ったままだし、” Is this saying the alley in front of the house was proudly kept dust free?

    The first example you gave is pretty interchangeable. You can say either and they will mean the same thing. As a native speaker, "I know how to do it." sounds more natural to me. The second example is also interchangeable. They all sound good with the exception of the last one: "...but they did them anyway..." doesn't make sense in that context. I would personally say: "I told the kid not to make those noises, but they did it anyways." That sounds natural to me.

    You can however, "You better not ask." is a bit more aggressive than the other two.
