选项
答案alternate改成alternative
解析 本题辨析形容词alternate和alternative。alternate的意思是“happening regularly after each other”，即“交替的、轮流的”，例如：alternate dry and wet seasons。Alternative 的意思是“being used，had，or done instead of something else”，即“可供选择的”。例如：If this approach cannot work，try to find an alternative one. 从上下文的意思来看，是说找到替代的指标，所以应该用alternative。
