I'm doing this right now as well and I'm stuck except I do have an answer for # 2
Black Death:
Cause- Around 2,000 years ago black rats, caught the plague from other species of rats that were infested with fleas that carried the plague. Fleas carried the bacteria that caused the plague and transferred it to the rats. When the fleas found a warm-blooded animal, they jumped onto it, drank its blood, and transmitted the plague. When infected rats died, the fleas hopped off them and onto other rats or nearby humans.
Effect- By the 14th century the Black Death had taken about half the population of Europe. A population decline of that magnitude had a big effect on everyday life and on the European economy. For those who survived the illness, many of these effects were economically beneficial.
When the Black Death finally was gone landowners had farms that were standing still because there were not enough workers to take care of them. Merchants and artisans had no assistants. Shops whose owners had died needed to be reopened. In short, much of Europe’s economy needed to be rebuilt. The effects of the plague made economic changes that changed most European societies by empowering those who had been on the low end of the economy.Great Famine:
Cause- rain flooded farms and rotted crops
Effect-this left no food for people or animals and caused millions to die of starvation
