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？谢谢！

of great interest to us 在这里,of不可省略.意思是"令我们很感兴趣".类似的词组有"of great value""of great importance"等等.可译成"很有价值/很重要".其实of great interest to us 这个句型可以有不同的说法,比如:1.interest us2.are very interesting3.We are interested in但是,当要表示"great"这个概念时,似乎只有"of great interest"更显合理.杰佛逊早已不在人世,但他的许多观点至今仍令我们很感兴趣.

不是多余的。 这里用的是 be of +抽象名词 结构。意思是具有... Your suggestion is of great importance. = Your suggestion is very important. 可以转换成该抽象名词的形容词，如上句。This book is of great value.=This book is very valuable.
