The sentence is:
The trader ______ his wares at the trade fair.
First, understand “wares” = goods or items for sale.
Now check the options:
A. exhibited – means formally showed something (often art, inventions, or special items). Possible, but slightly formal.
B. displayed – means arranged and showed goods for people to see and buy. 
This fits perfectly for a trader at a trade fair.
C. spread – means to scatter or distribute. Not correct here.
D. demonstrated – means to show how something works. That would be used if he was showing how to use a product, not just selling it.
Correct Answer: B (displayed)
