As is known to all, most stories of kindness do not begin with formerly drug-addicted celebrity (名人) bad boys. 1 does.
When this 2 took place, I was accompanying my grandmother at a huge garden party. 3 , Robert Downey Jr., in a nice cream-colored suit, came in. I pointed out this big movie star to Grandma 4 , but she was far more interested in piling her paper plate with cheese.
As my 80-year-old grandmother rose for the 5 after the party, she fell into a wheelchair ramp nearby. The sharp ramp 6 her leg open and it was bleeding.
I should have quickly taken control of the 7 — but due to my blood faint, I didn’t. Luckily, Robert Downey Jr. 8 .
He called an ambulance immediately, and asked someone to 9 a blanket. He took off his suit and 10 his suit around her leg. The cream color turned dark red. Robert surely knew how to speak to her, 11 , distract her. He stayed with my grandmother until the ambulance came, 12 her hand and telling her she was breaking his 13 by leaving so early. I hurried into the ambulance without a word, feeling too shy to thank him.
Some 15 years after that garden party, and five years since he’d been set free from prison for possession of drugs in his car, I came across Robert in a fancy restaurant. I was 14 to respect people’s privacy and never 15 someone having a meal. But on this day, I decided to 16 the code.
“I don’t have any 17 if you remember this...” and I told him the story. “I just wanted to tell you that it was simply the kindest act I’ve ever 18 .”
It’s never too 19 to express our appreciation for kindness which lies in everyone, even a celebrity bad boy. 20 , appreciation itself is a sort of kindness.

As we all know “The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world.” and “ 1 every successful man there is a woman.” Both these 2 mean the same things. Men rule the 3 , but their wives rule them.
Chinese people and other foreigners often say, 4 of the American women like making their husbands and sons successful, but some of them want 5 for themselves. They want good 6 . When they work they want to 7 better paid. They want to be as 8 as men.
In the 1960s, the American women’s liberation 9 was started by women who don’t want to 10 behind successful men. They want to stand beside them, with the same 11 for success. They don’t want to be told that certain jobs or 12 are closed to them. They refused to work side by side with men who do the 13 work for higher pay.
In America, a liberation woman must be 14 of being a woman and have confidence in herself. If somebody says to her, “You have come a long 15 , baby”, she will 16 and answer, “Not nearly as 17 as I am going to go, baby.” On the other hand, this movement is quite 18 and many American women
