Dear teachers,
I read a book about IELTS writing. In this book, it uses phrases like "surge quickly/dramatically", "soar sharply/remarkably" and "shoot up considerably/suddenly." However, I think "surge", "soar" and "shoot up" all include the meaning of "a sudden and great increase". Is this OK to use them with "quickly/dramatically", "sharply/remarkably" and "considerably/suddenly"? Don't they sound quite redundant?
Thank you in advance for teaching me.
