  1. They're all correct depending on what you want to communicate. "More development" could mean as little as development from 1 to 1.5 whereas "huge development" would mean something like developing from 1 to 100.

    As far as I can tell, "most important" and "paramount importance" have equal meaning, but of course should be used in different types of sentences.


  2. "Paramount importance" has become a cliche.  Avoid using it if at all possible.

    Alternatives: "of greatest importance", "is very important", "is the most important", possibly "it is imperative that ...".

  3. (1) MAJOR development

    (2) UTMOST importance...PARAMOUNT importance could work as well.

    It depends on the context...hope this helps!
