1. ①Nobody desires failure; success is the ultimate goal, and avoiding failure is what we want. However, experiencing failure and learning from it is essential for achieving success.
2. ②Remarkably successful individuals often have a lot of failures. Thomas Edison, famous for his many inventions with over 1,000 patents, serves as an example. Despite encountering countless failures, such as failing 9,999 times before perfecting the light bulb, Edison viewed these instances not as failures but as dispensable steps in the inventive process.
3. ③Edison once responded to questions about his mistakes by saying, "I haven't failed 9,999 times. I've successfully discovered 9,999 ways that won't work." This viewpoint proved right as he eventually achieved success despite experiencing many failures.
4. ④The author Toni Morrison faced significant challenges in her way to literary success. Despite starting writing in college, it took her years to produce work considered worthy of publication. Personal struggles, including a troubled marriage and single motherhood, were her difficulties.
5. ⑤Although Morrison's first novel, The Bluest Eye, received mixed reviews and made good sales, Morrison's hardships enriched her works. Eventually, she produced masterpieces like Song of Solomon, Beloved, and Jazz, resulting in her historic achievement as the first African-American woman to win the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1993.

Still, wouldn't it be even better if we could be successful without ever failing? We may think so, but in the end, (a)performing without failure doesn't necessarily produce lasting success. All success with no failure often leads a person to arrogance and carelessness. As a result, the always successful person or organization could suddenly encounter a disaster. Between the 1960s and the 1980s, NASA, the U.S. agency in charge of researching and (b)exploring space, completed one successful mission after another with no significant failure. In 1968, it launched Apollo 8, the first manned spacecraft to fly around the moon. In 1969, Apollo 11 landed on the moon, and the NASA astronaut Neil Armstrong became the first person in history to walk on the moon. During the following years, NASA successfully sent five other rockets to the moon. Even when the oxygen tank in Apollo 13 exploded on (c)its way to the moon in 1970, its entire crew was rescued, and they were able to return home safely. This continued series of successes made the decision-makers at NASA too self-assured and unable to imagine failure. In 1986, NASA planned to send its second space shuttle, Challenger, into orbit. Right before the launch, engineers expressed concerns about mechanical malfunctions and advised that the launching (d)be postponed. However, NASA managers did not take their warnings seriously and launched Challenger as planned. Challenger broke apart 73 seconds after it was launched, (e)that resulted in the deaths of its seven crew members. Edison, Morrison, and Wang all suffered big failures, but they never gave up. They learned from their mistakes and went on to experience (f)even greater triumphs. Like many successful people, we should view failure not as the opposite of success, but as an indispensable step on the path to reach success. After all, the only way to avoid failures is to do nothing. J.K. Rowling said that suffering many failures in her life (g)eventual enabled her to write the Harry Potter series. She remarked, "Failure taught me things about myself that I could have learned no other way." By risking and confronting failures and (h)learning from them, we can become wiser and stronger.

3. ③In 1986, NASA's carelessness caused the tragic Challenger disaster, highlighting the dangers of considering warnings and underestimating the possibility of failure.
4. ④Notable people like Edison, Morrison, and Wang faced significant failures in their pursuits, yet they overcame and ultimately achieved remarkable success by learning from their success. Many successful individuals, including J.K. Rowling, acknowledge that failure is a part of the journey to success.
