Step-by-Step Solution

1
Analyze the opening vocative and formal call to attention in the announcement.
Identified the direct addressees: 'propietarios y arrendatarios de inmuebles en el centro histórico de Oaxaca'.
Public announcements typically state or signal their primary audience in the opening address or eligibility criteria.
2
Evaluate the conditional eligibility criteria and required action.
The subsidy is specifically designated for properties housing 'barro negro, la talla de madera o textiles tradicionales' needing facade or structural repairs.
Matching the required action (applying for a non-reimbursable grant) with qualifying criteria pinpoints the specific target group.
3
Distinguish the primary audience from secondary entities mentioned in the text.
Disregarded tourists/pedestrians (future beneficiaries) and construction crews (implementers), confirming workshop owners/tenants as the true target.
Higher-level listening comprehension items include distractor mentions that must not be confused with the target audience.
