amazing是指“(物)令人惊异的,使人惊愕不已的”
而amazed则是“(人)感到惊异的”,使用对象不同。
eg:I'm amazed to see such an amazing scene.
正如interesting是“有趣的,让人感兴趣的”而interested是“(人)感兴趣的”一样。
eg:It's such an interesting story that I am interested in it.
The -ing form expresses the quality of the experience itself: a circus is amazing, a long journey is tiring, an adventure movie is exciting.
The -ed form is the condition of the experiencer: I am amazed by the circus, I am tired from the journey, I am excited after seeing the movie.
An easy way to remember:
The thing is -ing, and -ed is me.
