点评 1．阅读理解题目的题型是客观的，而阅读表达的题型则是主观的，这不仅需要考生将文章理解，还需要将自己对文章的理解通过自己的语言表达出来，而且要受到字数的限制．这就是说阅读理解只是要求学生将文章及题目中的信息理解了，就能作对题目，而阅读表达不仅要求学生理解文章和题目而且要把文章中的信息用自己的语言表达出来，是一种信息的输出．2．阅读理解的文章难度较大，片幅较长，生词较多；阅读表达的文章较为简单，生词少．3．在于阅读理解中的题型是选择题，问题类型及所考查的方式差别很大，所供选择的答案只有一项是正确的；但在阅读表达中，题型和题目的设置是比较固定的，包括：题目、句子替换、完成句子、个人观点描述（开放式问题）及翻译五种题型，答案往往是不唯一的．
