This is very surprising to see how prepositions can change the meaning of only one verb!
Same instruction: fill in the gap with the appropriate phrasal verbs, in the correct form.
take after, take over, take up, take off, take care of, take apart, take on (x2), take in, take out

1) Jack …………?.the manager's job from Mr. Smith when he retired.
2) The conference …………?. the whole morning.
3) Danny ……………………?his father: he has the same red hair, blue eyes and big feet.
4) We don’t have enough time to book our flights to London; will you please ……………this for us?
5) She …………?the photocopier ………to see what had got stuck in it

8) Nobody was ………………. by her unbelievable excuse.

8) Nobody was TAKEN IN by her unbelievable excuse.
9) She TOOK ON the task of making a music video for my Senior project.

- A chaque fois que les choses ne vont plus, il s’en prend toujours a moi.
Anytime things go wrong, he always takes it out on me.

- The teacher didn’t want the other students to know that Kate had failed the exam, so he TOOK her ASIDE to tell her.

Décidement, ce n'est pas si évident.

Me revoici, avec la correction de cet exercice!:

1) Jack took over the manager's job from Mr. Smith when he retired. (assume control of a company)
2) The conference took up the whole morning. (fill time/occupy place)
3) Danny takes after his father: he has the same red hair, blue eyes and big feet. (look like an older relative)
4) Will you please take care of booking our flights to London? (make arrangements. On est toujours tenté de ne le traduire que comme ‘look after’!)
5) She took the photocopier apart to see what had got stuck in it (take something [in]to pieces. Phrasal verb séparable)
6) What is wrong with him? He took off without saying goodbye. (depart, often suddenly)
7) My grandmother has taken on a new start of life since her operation. (acquire a new characteristic)

Fill in: The teacher didn’t want the others students to know that Kate had failed the exam, so he took her aside to tell her. (get someone alone to talk to them)
