**TLDR:** A family of tasks that measures the ability to read a text and answer meaningful questions based on its content.

<p>Reading comprehension tasks test whether a language model processes content not just at the word level, but also at contextual and logical levels. The answer often requires more than surface matching. This area is used not only for QA systems but also as a probe of general language understanding. The design of training and evaluation datasets is especially important here.</p>
