Explanation:

Listening is the ability of a person to receive and interpret the information by the receiver. This is the key to effective communication. Without the ability to listen properly the information can be misunderstood and misinterpreted.

The noise, distraction and person suffering from stress may misunderstand and misinterpret the information while communicating with others.

Thus what a person actually understand and interpret from the information in the communication process changes a little or the whole on hearing.
