"my paper translated in Spanish by Professor Axel Diaz Maimone, was applauded by the audiences." vs "my paper translated in Spanish by Professor Axel Diaz Maimone, was applauded by audiences."

Both phrases are correct, but they differ in the use of the article 'the' before 'audiences.' The first phrase includes 'the audiences,' which refers to specific audiences, while the second phrase omits 'the' and uses 'audiences' in a more general sense. The choice between them depends on whether you want to emphasize a specific group of audiences or audiences in general.
