What kind of a school test asks students to reveal secrets? In a rational culture, a student with a little brains will answer by refusing to reveal any secrets because then they won't be secrets, or he will claim to have no secrets. Such a student might say it's hard to keep a secret because people who think he has one keep asking him to tell it. In a rational culture, anybody will be asked to reveal secrets at various times and places, but not students in a school test.
