"With that quick temper he certainly takes after his father. He is exactly the same." take after ~ resemble; have a family resemblance with.
"He saw her off at the station." see off ~ accompany at leave taking
"You had better put out your cigarette because smoking isn't allowed in here." put out ~ extinguish (fire)
"She put on that look of not caring." put on a look ~ make a facial expression
"It was a bit taken aback by this sudden reversal." - My guess => aback OK, but the subject was supposed to be "I", I believe.
"You don't take after your sister." - My guess => along No. As above.
"Our landlord put the rent ..." ??? up? (raised the rent) (I don't use this expression, so I'm not sure.)
"Parents never really get over the death of a child." - My guess => over Right.
