right question, wrong answer

I went to have an HIV test. Before administering the test, the counselor asks a series of questions. "If the result is positive, will you kill yourself?" she asked me. I half-smiled, and thought for a moment, and said "not right away." She suddenly acted a little rushed and said "let's just say no. If you say yes, we cannot give you the test." She crossed off "no" on the form, and proceeded to explain how the test works. I remembered my seventh-grade French teacher, Mrs. Aguilar. If you didn't know the answer to a test question, you could walk up to her desk and ask, and she would tell you the correct answer. That way, you pass the test, even if you have the wrong answers in your head.
