… and hello, I'm Rob. Now, in English we have a phrasal verb that describes improving something, so it becomes the same level or standard as something else – it’s 'level up'.

Level up. 這里，動(dòng)詞 “l(fā)evel” 的意思是 “使某物與同類事物處于同等水平”，介詞 “up” 則用來(lái)說(shuō)明 “提升到這一水平”。因此，我們用 “l(fā)evel up” 來(lái)表示 “給某物升級(jí)，改進(jìn)或改善某樣?xùn)|西，從而使這個(gè)事物與其它同類事物處于同等水平”。
Rob
When we 'level up', it's often for things that are important and serious. For example, the standard of education at one school may be improved so that students receive the same quality of teaching that they do at another school. They level up. This process is called 'levelling up'.

但我們還可以用 “l(fā)evel up” 來(lái)描述 “改善日常生活中的事情”。
Rob
That's true. I want to level up the clothes in my wardrobe, so I look cool and fashionable like everybody else!
Jiaying
Good idea, Rob. You look so last year! Anyway, let's hear some more uses of 'level up'.
Examples
The company has levelled up wages for its staff to match those of a rival business.
Our team needs to level up if we stand any chance of beating our opponents at the weekend.
We're levelling up our training scheme so that everyone gets the chance to use it.

你正在收聽(tīng)的是 BBC英語(yǔ)教學(xué)的 “地道英語(yǔ)” 節(jié)目。以上我們介紹了動(dòng)詞短語(yǔ) “l(fā)evel up” 的含義和用法。它用來(lái)描述 “改善或改進(jìn)某事，使其與其它的同類事物處于同等水平”。

And remember, we can talk both about levelling up something important, like the economy, or something more personal such as your foreign language ability. Jiaying, if you level up your Spanish, you could come to the conversation club with me!
Jiaying
Not yet. I've got some levelling up to do! Time to study first. Hola... me… llamo… Jiaying.
Rob
This could take a while. Adios! Bye-bye.
Jiaying
Goodbye.
