Hayley教口語，“加碼”用英語怎么說？

?

If you up the ante, it means you increase the level of intensity of something.

如果你up the ante，意思是你增加了某事的強(qiáng)度。

This expression originally came from the game of poker, when the players are making bets -promising to payreceive money depending on who wins or loses. If you up the ante in a poker game, you increase the amount of money you re putting in (and possibly risking losing) -thus making the game more intense.

這個(gè)表達(dá)最初來自撲克游戲，當(dāng)玩家下注時(shí)，承諾根據(jù)誰贏了或輸了而付款。如果你在撲克游戲中加大賭注(up the ante)，你就增加了你投入的錢的數(shù)量(而且可能會(huì)有輸錢的風(fēng)險(xiǎn))，從而使游戲更加激烈。

The phrase is often used to refer to increasing the level of risk or increasing an amount of money; however, it is also used more generally to mean intentionally increasing the activity or intensity of a situation.

這個(gè)短語通常用來指增加風(fēng)險(xiǎn)水平或增加錢的數(shù)量;然而，它也更廣泛地用于指有意地增加某一情況的活度或強(qiáng)度。

Another benefit of setting attainable goals is you can always up the ante.

制定能夠企及的目標(biāo)還有另一個(gè)好處：那就是你可以不斷設(shè)定更高的目標(biāo)。
