Yep you got that right.
Alternative it is.

Choice to change an indigenous person (11)
Choice=alternative
Change+Indigenous person=Alter+Native.





Imagination was given to man to
compensate him for what he isn't.
A sense of humour was given
to console him for what he is.

Yeah, gendarme is right

For Shakespeare, I hear, is excluded (6) ----I suppose the answer has to be barred the pronounciation is like bard as in a playwright=Shakespeare and to bar is to exclude....
