Explanation:
Je n'aurais pas employé 'to display' surtout si l'exposé est à l'oral (contexte) to describe/to express/to stress on/ to emphasize/ to highlight/to speak about (tt simplement)

Explanation:
'nombreuses' is 'many, numerous' which is more positive than saying 'Quelques', for example, which would be 'several'.
