1、take the place of 代替、顶替、取代：The helicopter may take the place of a car some day.也许有一天直升机会取代汽车.
2、in (the) place of 相当于instead of 也是代替的意思,但instead of 还含有“而不是”的意思.
We now have trucks in place of carts.我们现在已有了卡车取代大车.它们怎么互换The helicopter may take the place of a car some day.=The helicopter may in (the) place ofa car some day一个是动词短语可以做谓语一个是介词短语在同样的位置也可以互换？一般都可以啊
