OUCH! You probably broke a lot of things! You lost all the permissions
like SUID, SGID, sticky and so on... Correct way would be:
chmod -R ugo+rw 1.sh /usr;chmod ugo+x `find -type d /usr`
Probably the only way to get now out from this situation is to reinstall
the whole system completely. :-))) You'll find probably a lot of different
things to magically get broken.
