"A sight more" nghĩa là gì?

"A (damn) sight more (something)" -> nghĩa là khá nhiều, nhiều hơn so với cái khác.

Ví dụ
Talking of languages, if you haven't caught the cracking French detective series Lupin (Netflix), then do. Omar Sy stars as the master thief Assane Diop in a yarn (sợi, chỉ, chuyện luyên thuyên) as tense as Luther and a sight more believable than Poirot. And, what joy for us of a certain age, the subtitles come as standard. Last week's item on doctors withdrawing painkillers (thuốc giảm đau) from patients who think they need the medication (on the grounds that doctor knows best), reminds a reader of her male surgeon (bác sĩ phẫu thuật) who loftily (sừng sững, kiêu căng) informed her before surgery that “the cervix (cổ tử cung) is not a particularly sensitive area.”

It was a sight more than he could bear. At least at first. Home surveillance video shows a man lounging by a pool in Greenfield, Massachusetts, being startled by a curious bear this weekend. The video, shared on Facebook Sunday by Dawn Bete, is dated Saturday. The bear can be seen wandering into the backyard and trying a sip of the pool water. The man is only a few yards away and appears to be sleeping, or at least doesn't react to the bear.

But it does do the other thing, too. Although it’s pretty portly, at 1865kg, the Lusso T lacks the four-wheel drive that was something of a mixed blessing in the V12 Lusso and has four-wheel steering as standard, which means it’s actually a sight more agile than you might imagine a car with a wheelbase 300mm longer than an entire Smart Fortwo. It’s a car that you can hustle and one you can balance on the throttle (van bướm, bộ điều chỉnh). Turn in to a tight corner and you’ll be impressed by how keenly the nose bites into the apex (đỉnh, ngọn), how little understeer is presented yet how strong remains the traction even without front driveshafts.
