Cannot load arxiv dataset on MacOS?
State: closed
Labels: name: dataset bug

I am having trouble loading the `"arxiv"` config from the `"scientific_papers"` dataset on MacOS. When I try loading the dataset with:

```python
arxiv = nlp.load_dataset("scientific_papers", "arxiv")
```

I get the following stack trace:

```bash
JSONDecodeError                           Traceback (most recent call last)

I am not sure how to trace back to the specific JSON file that has the "Unterminated string". Also, I do not get this error on colab so I suspect it may be MacOS specific. Copy pasting the relevant lines from `transformers-cli env` below:

- Platform: Darwin-19.5.0-x86_64-i386-64bit
- Python version: 3.7.5
- PyTorch version (GPU?): 1.5.0 (False)
- Tensorflow version (GPU?): 2.2.0 (False)

Any ideas?
