According to the passage: "The Bubonic Plague caused the power of the Roman Catholic Church to decrease because church leaders were unable to stop its spread." We derive the effect from this statement.
# Answer:
The Bubonic Plague caused the power of the Catholic Church to decrease (because church leaders couldn't stop its spread).

### Question 28
# Brief Explanations:
The passage states "The fall of Rome in 476 AD caused borders to break apart and led to political fragmentation and instability." We take this information as the answer.
# Answer:
The fall of Rome caused Western Europe’s borders to break apart (and led to political fragmentation and instability).

### Question 29
# Brief Explanations:
To support the idea of political fragmentation from Rome's fall, the passage's statement "The fall of Rome in 476 AD caused borders to break apart and led to political fragmentation and instability" provides the evidence as it shows the breakdown of order (borders breaking, instability) indicating fragmentation.
# Answer:
The evidence that the fall of Rome caused borders to break apart and led to political fragmentation and instability best supports the idea.

From the passage: "One important legal principle that developed in medieval England was the right to a trial by a jury of one’s peers." So we get the origin from this.
# Answer:
The idea of a trial by a jury of one’s peers originated in medieval England.

### Question 31
# Brief Explanations:
The passage mentions "Mongol invasions caused changes in regions they conquered, such as increased trade or new systems of rule". We can pick one of these, like increased trade or new systems of rule, as a change.
# Answer:
One change caused by Mongol invasions was increased trade (or new systems of rule, etc. as per the passage).

### Question 32
# Brief Explanations:
If we take "increased trade" as the change from Question 31, the passage says it affected daily life "by being introduced to new religions and goods". So we explain the effect using this. If we took another change, we'd explain its effect similarly.
# Answer:
If the change was increased trade, the effect was that people in the region were introduced to new religions and goods (affecting their daily life); if the change was a new system of rule, it affected their daily life by altering how they were governed, etc. (based on the passage's "affected daily life for people living there by being introduced to new religions and goods" or the rule system impact).
