HOPE THIS HELPS YOU! ALL ARE CORRECT!
The easiest thing to do for this in the future would be to go on google and type "Define:" then the word you're looking for in the search engine.
I did that for the first one and got this;
char·la·tan[ˈSHärlədən, ˈSHärlətn]NOUNa person falsely claiming to have a special knowledge or skill; a fraud.
Would you want to go to a fraud for medical treatment? Of course not! So you'd write "no" and explain what it means to be a charlatan.
Do the same for the other ones and you'll mange to find the answers with no problem at all!
For the alphabetical one, just put the five words in order and pick the middle one, and for the questions of your own just make up clever questions like the other ones on the worksheet using new words that you find in the dictionary. I recommend searching a word you know then looking at synonyms on the thesaurus to find new words. <span />
Upton Sinclair, Ida Tarbell and Frank Norris were amont the first journalists to publicize immoral, corrupt practices of large industries during the Progressive Era.
Upton Sinclair was an American writer who won the Pulitzer Prize. In 1904, Fred Warren, editor of the socialist newspaper Appeal to Reason, commissioned him a report on the bad practices of the food industry that would become the novel The Jungle, an unprecedented sales success and a huge international commotion. As a consequence, President Theodore Roosevelt received the author in the White House and put in place laws to ensure the quality of food for human consumption.
Ida Tarbell was an American professor, writer and journalist, considered one of the main "muckrakers" of the Progressive Era. She is known for her research on John D. Rockefeller and the Standard Oil Company; her investigations exposed the unfair monopolistic practices carried out by the company until the Supreme Court decided to dissolve the monopoly.

During the Spanish-American War, Norris was a correspondent in Cuba for McClure's magazine, being critical of American interventionist policies in the war.
