Answer 1

you can not say hot scorching because both scorching and hot mean the same thing so u can say is hot outside

Answer 2

1. "scorching hot" is a colloquialism used to emphasize how hot it is! The exaggeration is quite acceptable on unusually hot days!

2. comma after "dissertations"

3. "made" needs to be either "wrote" or "gave"

4. OK
