discuss how Ha Jin employs casual, informal language in his story "The Bane of the Internet" to make a deeper statement about the world in which we live

Ha Jin employs a casual, informal language in his story by writing as if the reader is a person he knows. This allows the reader to become part of the story he is creating. Since the tone is more "personal," the reader feels the author's feelings and statements in the text and gets involved in it.

Explanation:

The question above is related to the story entitled "The Bane of the Internet," written by Ha Jin (a Chinese). It centers on the hardships of immigrating to another country and how tedious it is.

Writing may be done in a "formal way" or an "informal way." (I have already discussed the informal type of writing above). A formal type of writing, on the other hand, is impersonal in nature and more subjective than an informal way of writing. It is often used for "academic or business purposes."
