Assuming you are looking for a single answer, the best answer is:

They needed to find an alternative to the silk road due to the rise of the Ottoman Empire.

The Ottoman Turks were involved in trade and merchant traffic themselves, and they often charged high rates for travel through the territories they now controlled.  Also, as religious and cultural opposites, European Christian culture and Islamic culture often came into conflict. So finding an alternate route was appealing to Europeans who sponsored exploration by sea.

Curiosity was also a factor, but they were not so much about "seeking out new live and new civilizations."  If anything, they wanted to find further possibilities for extending their own civilization and profiting from trade with others.

To "boldly go where no one has gone before" is the theme for exploring the universe set forth in the <em>Star Trek </em>television and film series.

The fallacious arguments are:

The Civil War was about Northern businessman trying to bankrupt Southern farmers by emancipating their enslaving work force.  

England developed a fair and just taxation system for the American Colonies.

<em>Both sentences have fallacious arguments. </em>

A fallacy is a wrong idea or a belief that is not true. In the case of the question, the first sentence is a fallacy because the Civil War was not about that argument. The Union wanted to have abolishment ideas that were not supported by the Confederated States. In the case of the second sentence, that is also a fallacy. The taxation system imposed by the English was not fair. It was a heavy taxation system that upset the colonies and that was one of the reasons to start the American Revolution.
