Gone with the wind, (the) epic novel (about) life in South during the Civil War period, (took) ten (years write).

D, 改称years to write, 为什么不改为years to be written呢？

take 时间  to do.......是固定用法，表示目的，不需要被动。

呵呵，肯定是我忙中出错了，谢谢斑竹办帮我移帖子了。
我记得好像有sb take some time to do sth,
这里是sth take some time to do,  有这种用法吗?

consonant

我觉得改成to be writen 比较好。
