Abstract The “sulfur and its compounds” unit was selected to be analyzed and studied in the old and new compulsory chemistry textbooks published by People's Education Press. Based on the cultivation perspective of the core competence in the new curriculum standards, the literacy orientation of the “sulfur and its compounds” in the new curriculum standards was firstly defined, and a comparative analysis including introduction, text, column and illustration of the unit in the new and old textbooks was further studied. The results show that the content of the new textbook “sulfur and its compounds” focuses on the cultivation of the competence of “evidence reasoning and model cognition”, followed by “macro identification and micro analysis”, “scientific attitude and social responsibility”, and focuses on the development of level 1 and 2, which conforms to the academic requirements and literacy orientation of the theme unit in the new curriculum standards.
