They aren't doubled because the final syllable of the words are not accented.
The final consonant is not doubled in the past tense form of "open" and "listen" because they do not follow the rule of doubling the final consonant when adding -ed. Instead, they follow different rules for forming their past tense forms.
The last letter in a verb is doubled to make it present continuous when both of the following conditions are met: the verb ends with a consonant preceded by a single vowel, and the last syllable is stressed. For example, in the verb "run," the "n" is doubled to "running" in present continuous tense because it meets these conditions.
In English, when adding the -ed suffix to form the past tense, we generally do not double the final consonant if the word ends in a vowel-consonant-vowel pattern (such as in "show"). Therefore, "show" becomes "showed" rather than "showwed" when forming the past tense. This rule helps maintain consistent pronunciation patterns in the language.
To form the past tense of a word by doubling the consonant, typically double the final consonant when adding "-ed" only if the word meets the following criteria: 1) one syllable, 2) ends in a single vowel followed by a consonant, 3) has the stress on the final syllable, and 4) is not ending in "w", "x", or "y". Examples include "shop" (shopped), "bop" (bopped), and "plan" (planned).
The future tense of "listen" is "will listen" or "shall listen".
Will listen.
When you are changing a regular English verb from the present tense to another form, if the verb ends in a consonant, you sometimes add a second consonant of the same type before you add the suffix. example:swim>swimmed run>running
