Questions will be formatted with HTML encoding and will include some annoying replacement codes for symbols.  
if you copy and paste the text all into a Spreadsheet or Word processor, you can do a find and replace to fix this.

<table id="bkmrk-find-replace-%26%23039%3B-"><thead><tr><th>Find</th><th>Replace</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>`&#039;`</td><td>'</td></tr><tr><td>`&quot;`</td><td>"</td></tr><tr><td>`&amp;`</td><td>&amp;</td></tr><tr><td>`&shy;`</td><td>replace with nothing (it makes a hyphen if the word breaks across lines)</td></tr></tbody></table>

Otherwise dump the text into [https://emn178.github.io/online-tools/html\_decode.html](https://emn178.github.io/online-tools/html_decode.html) and it'll rebuild the text for you.
