“all the+比较级”这样的用法怎么理解

我在看2019年高考浙江卷完形填空时，遇到这么一句话，填上答案为：

The challenge is all the more serious when you consider the demanding exercise required to bike from France to Poland.

该句改编于网页文章，原句为：

The challenge is all the more dramatic when you consider the tremendous, calorie-burning exercise required to bike from France to Poland.

两句主句的表语都是“all the +比较级”形式，这个怎么理解呢？还有其他的例子吗？

all the +比较级的意思是"even more ...than before"，一般翻译为：更加。。。,属于一种习惯用法。请看权威词典的例句：

1.Several publishers rejected her book, but that just made her all the more determined.

2.The fact that they'd written the play themselves made it all the more impressive.

3.This is all the more so where the investigation involves the suspicion of serious criminality.

4.I hate him all the more.
