One grammar question, and Idioms?

<p>Professor Chen repeated [her point that] the hero, if [given] the chance [to relive] the moment, would choose to [do it].</p>

<p>"Do it" is the answer, but I have no clue as to why. And what are the top idioms to know? I've seen "Prefer To" and "Protest Against" but what else is there?</p>

<p>“it” has no referent. Do what? </p>
