Abstract: “Maths 8” textbooks, published by The People's Education Press, and the textbook of “Australia's Heinemann Maths Zone 8 VELS Enhanced” are chosen as the research objects and a comparative study was conducted from the perspectives of quantity, type, presentation mode and difficulty degree. The findings show that the types and the steps for the solutions of the listed examples are basically the same; yet they differ in the quantity of examples(HMZ having a larger number), and HMZ is lacking in proof questions and PEPM has greater number of difficult examples. The study finds that both textbooks place emphasis on the fundamentals; yet Australia focuses more on the procedural knowledge and thus more suitable for students' acceptance.
