Answer:
Passive reading is when a reader does technically read the words but absorbs next to nothing about what is written. Active readers begin reading with a desire to find out what is going to be said.
The difference between active and passive reading is your goal, the reason you are reading in the first place. In passive reading, your goal is to learn what the writer thinks about the topic or subject. In active reading, your goal is to learn what you think about the topic or subject.
Passive readers expect an author to do all the work, to motivate them and keep them interested. Active readers are self-motivated, and they take responsibility for arousing and maintaining their own interest in an author's topic. Passive readers read without thinking.
