read permission but cant ls -l it.

ok what is the signifigance of the -l that wont let you list the contents of a directory you clearly have access to list files. what am i missing

Code:

[qgatu003]/tmp$ls -l hold
hold/file1: Permission denied
total 0

[qgatu003]/tmp$ls hold
file1

[qgatu003]/tmp$ls -l
dr-x---r--   2 root     other        179 Apr 23 09:18 hold

edit::

i want to say its because i can not read the inode information from the file. does the system need to pull you to the files current directory in order to gets its full list of required arguments?......
