    COVID-19 has made people think harder about their relationship with nature. It has also raised questions about our lifestyles. The sharing economy (共享经济) , working in open offices, living in crowded apartments and the food industry's use of reusable products have made the perfect storm for a pandemic (大流行).

    It's cheaper to rent (租用) than to own, so the sharing economy might be good, but sharing spaces and objects are great ways to spread the virus (传播病毒). How does one keep away from others when they are expected to share cars, bikes, apartments and even the same offices?

    The trend of using open offices, which can save space, is working against us. In this type of office, workers don't have their own desk- everything is shared. Sometimes, computers and chairs are also shared, which is not hygienic(卫生的). Fortunately, more workers are working from home during pandemic, butthatwon't last forever.

    Reusability is a common practice in the restaurant industry. Reusable cups and chopsticks are often used. Unluckily, reusable products increase the chance of spreading disease. For example, Starbucks recently stopped refilling customers' reusable cups in order to stop the spread of the virus.

    People like to be social. But the virus has made this more dangerous. We have to be careful about how we interact (交往) with others for now. Perhaps we need to rethink about our lifestyles to reduce the spread of future pandemics.
