not really. x bit will allow you to 'get into' or 'cross'not to list files:


$ mkdir test1
$ touch test1/a test1/b
$ chmod 111 test1
$ ls test1
ls: test1: Permesso negato   # x is not enought
$ cd test1                   # but is enoyght to ge in
/test1$ ls      
ls: .: Permesso negato
/test1$ 
/test1$ cd ../
$ chmod 444 test1            # read is ok for listing files
$ ls test1  
test1/a  test1/b
$ cd test1                   # not to get in
bash: cd: test1: Permesso negato
