句子"Jefferson died long ago, but many of his ideas are still of great interest to us"中文是什么意思，句中的of是不是多余的？謝謝！

of great interest to us 在這里,of不可省略.意思是"令我們很感興趣".類似的詞組有"of great value""of great importance"等等.可譯成"很有價值/很重要".其實of great interest to us 這個句型可以有不同的說法,比如:1.interest us2.are very interesting3.We are interested in但是,當要表示"great"這個概念時,似乎只有"of great interest"更顯合理.杰佛遜早已不在人世,但他的許多觀點至今仍令我們很感興趣.

不是多余的。 這里用的是 be of +抽象名詞 結構。意思是具有... Your suggestion is of great importance. = Your suggestion is very important. 可以轉換成該抽象名詞的形容詞，如上句。This book is of great value.=This book is very valuable.
