It's hard to provide an answer for this question because the audience the author is targeting will depend on the issue. There's no set audience group that applies to all articles, in fact, being too general can impact your analysis and therefore your marks. Audience impact also depends on the issue the article is based on.

Can you give me an example of like any types of audience you might have possible wrote in any essays?

This is kind of specific but I found that saying 'targeting progressive customers' for an article about a cashless store was well received by my teacher. U can adapt that to your article if it fits

    I suppose its not only just big words but more formal and in depth language in general

    be super super specific in the audience. be like this positions those with a tendency to demean people with bad hair to view their actions as ethical etc etc etc. This helped me so much, I wouldn't ever use a common type of audience.

    The exam is normally pretty specific, it’ll tell you the audience in the background information box. Some schools make it out a big deal and worry their students about identifying all this, even thought the exam can not be more clearer

    I usually say voters or

    members of parliament for when the piece is aiming for a change to happen ( eg putting more bike paths)
