Answer to Question 1

Countries having a flexible exchange rate regime see their currencies depreciate during recessions and thus are able to increase net exports, stimulating the economy. This is not possible when a country is a member of a currency union unless the common currency is devalued. Therefore, these countries have difficulty recovering from recessions.
