　　請將下面這段話翻譯成英文：

　　選秀(draft),指選拔在某方面表現優秀的人。中國自古就有，古代選秀一般是宮廷選秀。從2004年《超級女聲》開始，大眾選秀節目開始進入我們的視線，這類幾乎“零門檻(zero of threshold)”的選秀活動讓所有人都有機會成為明星。之后的《好男兒》、《快樂男聲》、《我型我秀》還有《中國好聲音》等等選秀活動一一登場，幾乎一刻都沒有讓中國的電視觀眾閑著。通過這些選秀活動，很多有才能的 “平民百姓”實現了自己的夢想，走上了星光大道(avenue of stars)。

　　參考譯文：

　　A draft refers to a procedure during which people who perform well in a certain aspect are picked out.In ancient China,there were also drafts which generally referred to court drafts.From the year 2004 when Super Girl was on,talent show programs began to come into our sight.Such kind of nearly“zero threshold”talent show offers everyone an opportunity to become popular.Later,there came My Hero,Super Boy,My Show and The Voice of China.As these talent show programs appeared one by one,Chinese TV audience hardly had time to rest.Through these talent show programs,many talented “ordinary people”realized their dreams and stepped on the avenue of stars.

　　詞句點撥

　　1.選秀，指選拔在某方面表現優秀的人：可譯為A draft refers to a procedure during which people who perform well in a certain aspect are picked out; refer to 意為“指的是”，譯文中用增詞法，增譯出a procedure“程序”，使得結構更加清晰。

　　2.進入我們的視線：可譯為come into our sight。

　　3.一一登場：可譯為appear one by one。

　　4.有才能的“平民百姓”：可譯為talented“ordinary people”。
