赞同曹老师的解答。

take表示“花时间”时主语通常是事物，但有时候也可以是人。例如：

Patients took more than two hours to be processed through the department.病人在这个科看病需要两个多小时的时间。（《柯林斯高阶英汉双解词典》process词条）

▲ 以下各句均为同义表达，但第一句最常见、最普通。

It took him five years to write the book.

It took five years for him to write the book.

The book took him five years to write.

He took five years to write the book.

He took five years writing the book.

1 可以的。如《牛津词典》take词条下的例句：

The official seemed to take hours to examine my passport.

2 life在本句为“人生、一生”的意思。

3 全句的意思为：让我们默想一下我们逝去的亲人们（的人生）。

注：the dear为形容词名词化，表示复数概念，=the dear persons/people。departed：已故的，去世的。
