Looks like you just need to change your special quote symbol to just a normal quote. When I look at the text file I see several lines that don't have normal quotes.

directory â€œ/var/named/â€;
dump-fileâ€/var/named/data/cache_dump.dbâ€;
statistics-fileâ€/var/named/data/named_stats.txtâ€;
includeâ€/etc/rndc.keyâ€;

all of those lines have some funky symbol instead of quotes.

Try install

yum install caching-nameserver

and then start named service
