1. "Bring it on" is an expression that one says, tauntingly, when they're challenging another to a fight or competition that they are confident of winning (usually).
Ex:
"Dude, my boys here and I can whoop your sorry asses on the court."
"Bring it on, muthaf*cka, bring it on!"
2. "Do me up" is slang for "give me the lastest news."
It is also a versatile expression used to request that something be done for you.
Ex:
Lady to her hairstylist: "I've got a fancy party to go to this evening, so do me up real good."
A lady to her husband, as she turns her back to him revealing her unzipped dress: "Honey, do me up." (zip up my dress)
It also could be used in a negative sense:
"Suge's boys threatened to do me up (read: murder) if I didn't stop bad-mouthing him in the press."
3. "Come along" means to go with someone somewhere, but that's pretty basic. I gather you're asking because there's some other meaning. What's the context?

Thank you guest for the reply.
the last sentence is exactly is:a mother speaks to her daughter when her daughter told her that her dead husband has appeared again.the sentence is(how often does someone come along?)
what about these sentenses:
1-I am taking it out of context
2-I ll pull the car around
thanks.

To take something out of context means to quote/consider a statement without the context in which it was used by the author. This may cause a change in the original meaning.

Leena, are you just getting people here to do your homework?
|
|
|
For "how often does someone come along" -- that means, how often do you encounter someone like that?
|
|
<<2-I ll pull the car around >>
That means to bring the car from point A to point B.
"Wait right here while I pull the car around."

Guest this is not a homework by the way.Im an esl learner and there are some sentenses i cant understand even if i look up the dictionary.I dont play here in this forum i only ask and i need answers for things i really dont know them.Just notice that most sentences that i asked about are either slang expressions or compound verbs that r a little bit difficult for non native people to understand.Thanks anyway.

Leena,
You should so totally ignore that mean guest who said that you're here to gather answers for your HW. I just don't see why we have such people who's only job is to ruin other people's business in this forum. THEY NEED TO GET A LIFE. Reminds me of another moron called Stan.

I cant figure out
to figure out something means to solve or understand it. Sometimes people drop preposition "out" from the expression and they simply say "figure".
ex: I figured that I couldn't make progress much faster in English if there was no Uriel for answering to my Englsh-related questions. :-)

I also learnt a lot from the above answers.
Leena, I am also doing ELS course, and I am taking AP3, and you?
