CHOICE OF WORDS:

(1.) Русские глаголы смотреть, видеть соответствуют английским глаголам to see, to look и to watch, которые различаются по характеру обозначаемого действия. Глагол to see smb, smth обозначает использование способности зрения - увидеть/видеть кого-либо, что-либо, в том числе и зрелищное мероприятие; глагол to see обычно сочетается с такими существительными, как a play (a film, the first night, an actor in some play, a programme on TV).
