1- The correct answer is D, the route he followed took an extraordinary amount of time, as he had to surround all the African Continent to reach India.

Looking for a shorter route, many European explorers continued his exploration trips.

2- The correct answer is B, to gain direct access to spices. Until Vasco da Gama, the European traders had to pay taxes to the muslims in Middle East to go through their territories to reach the East Indies and its spices. But when the explorers found new routes, this situation finished.
