Where is this text coming from? Because that string looks like YAML,
complete with the opening "---". \xC3\xA9 is the UTF-8 encoding of
codepoint U+00E9, "small letter e with acute", something you'd expect in
French text.
If you do `YAML.load(str)` in 1.9 or higher, this is what appears:
irb: YAML.load(str)
===> {"French"=>"3. Combien de régions y a-t-il au Cameroon?",
"English"=>"3. How many regions are there in Cameroon?"}
