If your HTML is not terribly complex, you could use something like YAML

use strict;
use warnings;
use Data::Dumper;
use YAML;

# Load a YAML stream of 3 YAML documents into Perl data structures.
my $data = do {local $/ = <DATA> };
my @yaml = Load( $data );

for my $hash (@yaml) {
    my $question = $hash->{question};
    my $answer   = $hash->{answer};
    print "q: $question\na: $answer\n";
}
