In the Cartesian coordinate system $xOy$, the parametric equations of the line $l$ are $\left\{\begin{array}{l}x=1+t\\ y=\sqrt{3}t\end{array}\right.$ (where $t$ is a parameter). Establish a polar coordinate system with the origin as the pole and the positive $x$-axis as the polar axis. The polar coordinate equation of the curve $C$ is $\rho ^{2}(3+\sin ^{2}\theta )=12$. <br/>$(1)$ Find the general equation of the line $l$ and the Cartesian equation of the curve $C$; <br/>$(2)$ Let point $M(1,0)$, the line $l$ intersects the curve $C$ at points $A$ and $B$. Find the value of $\frac{1}{|MA|}+\frac{1}{|MB|}$.
