------题目------
Only through mistakes can there be discovery or progress.
------正文------
I concede that making mistakes is essential to make true discovery or progress. However, it will be silly to place too much emphasis on mistakes while ignoring the accumulated knowledge and experience of our predecessors which will be equally essential, if not more, for us to make discovery or progress. Besides that, one should not be too naive to believe that mistakes can surely lead to discovery or progress.

It is true that no meaningful discovery or progress can be made without mistakes. The rate of failure is the function of one's familiarity with the problem. If one is doing routine things, there is little risk of making mistakes. Thus, a higher rate of failure usually indicates that one is deviating from the well-traveled path to find a new one, which may lead to true discovery or progress.  As an individual, I learned new things through trials and errors. As a country, China found the right policies which leaded to its current prosperity through the failed policies. As a discipline, physics progressed through the false or flawed theories. The reason why mistakes can help us make meaningful discovery or progress is that mistakes can put us on the right way to success by telling us which ways are not right. However, despite the magical power of mistakes, one should take caution when dealing with them.

One would put herself/himself at a disadvantaged position if one places too much emphasis on trials and errors and ignores the accumulated knowledge and experience of our predecessors. One great advantage of human beings is that we have found various ways to document and pass on the knowledge and experience of our ancestors. Actually, it is the valuable accumulation that leads to our accelerated progress and our comfortable modern life. Thus it will be a pity if such resources are not sufficiently used. For example, it will be ridiculous if one wants to find the right filament for the light bulb through trials and errors, because Edison has always done the work for us.

Besides that, the notion that failure is the mother of success can be quite misleading because it seems to tell people that if they keep on trying, they will surely succeed in the future. Unfortunately, this is not necessarily the case. To find an illustration, one needs look no further that the attempt to build a machine that can run for ever without providing additional energy. This notion seems well contrived and it seems that one can accomplish the task if one tries hard enough. However, it turns out that this notion is wrong from the very beginning and the trials and errors to realize this notion are made in vain.

In sum, while it is true that true discovery and progress can hardly be made without mistakes, one should take caution when one is trying to make discovery or progress through trials and errors. One should never forget to use the knowledge and experience of the predecessors to avoid unnecessary mistakes. And one should also be aware that mistakes do no necessarily lead to success if the notion is wrong at the very beginning.

However, it will be silly to place too much emphasis on mistakes while ignoring the accumulated knowledge and experience of our predecessors which will be equally essential, if not more, for us to make discovery or progress. Besides that, one should not be too naive to believe that mistakes can surely automatically lead to discovery or progress.

It is true that no meaningful discovery or progress can be made without mistakes.可以调一下语序,把后面的观点调到前面来再用一个After all之类的把下面这句话作为原因解释放到后面,更快地让人知道你的意图 The rate of failure is the function of one's familiarity with the problem. If one is doing routine things, there is little risk of making mistakes. Thus, a higher rate of failure usually indicates that one is deviating from the well-traveled path to find find应该删掉或者换个词形吧 a new one, which may lead to true discovery or progress. 这两个词用了好多遍了换个breakthrough  innovation之类的 As an individual, I learned new things through trials and errors. As a country, China found the right policies which leaded to its current prosperity through the failed policies. As a discipline, physics progressed through the false or flawed theories. The reason why mistakes can help us make meaningful discovery or progress is that mistakes can put us on the right way to success by telling us which ways are not right. However, despite the magical power of mistakes, one should take caution when dealing with them.

One would put herself/himself at a disadvantaged 有点别扭,可以考虑换一下 position if one places too much emphasis on trials and errors and ignores the accumulated knowledge and experience of our predecessors. One great advantage of human beings is that we have found various ways to document and pass on the knowledge and experience of our ancestors. Actually, it is the valuable accumulation that leads to our accelerated progress and our comfortable modern life. Thus it will be a pity if such resources are not sufficiently used.

Unfortunately, this is not necessarily the case. To find an illustration, one needs look no further that the attempt to build a machine that can run for ever without providing additional energy. This notion seems well contrived用得好:) and it seems that one can accomplish the task if one tries hard enough. However, it turns out that this notion is wrong from the very beginning and the trials and errors to realize this notion are made in vain.

In sum, while it is true that true discovery and progress can hardly be made without mistakes, one should take caution when one is trying to make discovery or progress through trials and errors.
