When answering a question please:

Read the question carefully.
Understand that English isn't everyone's first language so be lenient of bad spelling and grammar.
If a question is poorly phrased then either ask for clarification, ignore it, or edit the question and fix the problem. Insults are not welcome.
Don't tell someone to read the manual. Chances are they have and don't get it. Provide an answer or move on to the next question.

I would personally go with a DataGridView.
You can use a Column named "question" that holds the question.
Then, use a column named "answers" that is a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn which holds all the possible answers.
See DataGridView column types here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bxt3k60s.aspx[^]

If don't want to use a ComboBox in the answer column, you could use a nested DataGridView to show all answers for the question.

When switching from survey to survey, I would have the DataGridView be filled with all the questions/answers for that survery.
So, the DataGridView only shows information for one survey at a time.
