**读 (dú)**
读 means "to read" in the sense of carefully studying or understanding a text, often for an extended period of time. It can also be used to describe the act of reading aloud. The act of reading implies that the reader is actively engaging with the text and trying to comprehend its meaning. 
Examples:
- 我读了一本书。 (I read a book.)
- 他正在读报纸。 (He is reading the newspaper.)
- 老师让我们大声读课文。 (The teacher asked us to read the text aloud.)

**看 (kàn)**
看 means "to look at" or "to observe" something, often for a shorter period of time and without necessarily focusing on understanding or comprehension. It can also be used to describe the act of watching a movie or TV show. The act of looking implies that the viewer is simply receiving visual information without necessarily engaging in critical thinking or analysis. 
Examples:
- 我看了一部电影。 (I watched a movie.)
- 他正在看电视。 (He is watching TV.)
- 我看了一眼窗外。 (I glanced out the window.)</s>
