"Measure up (to someone or something)" nghĩa là đạt tới, phù hợp với/ đạt tiêu chuẩn so với ai hoặc điều gì.  

Ví dụ
Of course, countless pop stars over the years have used sexuality to their advantage (lợi thế), but Tove Lo is completely shameless about it in a way that nobody else can quite measure up to.

Track powerhouses (cường quốc) such as Great Britain, Australia and Germany will be favorites across several events. How will the U.S. team measure up? Both coaches and riders alike will have a better idea by the weekend. 

Even if you’re a TV series purist (chủ nghĩa thuần túy) and you don’t believe a sequel (phần tiếp theo) can ever measure up to the original, put your regular Friday 8 p.m. to 9 9 p.m. viewing fare on pause and give this show a good look. 

Mr Smith, thank you for the clarity (rõ ràng) which you bring to bear on your questions. I would like to know how I deal with a job interview question. What if I am asked: How do you define success in your career? And how do you think you measure up to your own definition? Anticipating (lường trước) your response. – D.S.
