John is ill and I want to know who is going to replace him.(句型转换) →John is ill and I want to know who is going to _______________.
答案:take the place of him/take his place 【详解】 考查固定短语。句意:约翰病了,我想知道谁来代替他。需要替换的部分是“代替他”,take the place of sb./take one’s place为固定短语,意为“代替某人”,第一个短语中的sb.作宾语,用him,第二个短语中对应的形容词性物主代词是his。故答案是take the place of him/take his place。
