What do you mean when you say you can't read? Do you mean you're blind?

Orca is a screen reader for the graphical desktop in Linux. Speakup is a 
screen reader that works in Linux's text command line console.

Vinux is a good distribution that's based on Ubuntu and will come up 
talking out of the box. You'll even have speech during installation. The 
URL for more information on Vinux is at http://vinuxproject.org/
