Correct Answer: over


Solution : The correct choice is the second option.

The word over is the correct choice in this sentence because it indicates the assumption of control or responsibility. When a new government "takes over," it means it assumes authority and leadership, which is the intended meaning in this context.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: The new government took over last year.
