Normally we Tab through links and form controls, not general text. We use the arrow keys either on their own or in combination with the Ctrl key to move through text.

For navigating and reading lists, you would use Ctrl + Up or Down Arrow to move to and read the next or previous list item, the Up or Down Arrows on their own to move to and read the previous or next line...which would not read the entire list item but rather go through the lines in a list item.
