原句：In terms of attitudes to creativity there seems to be a reversal of priorities: young Westerners making their boldest departures first and then gradually mastering the tradition; and young Chinese being almost inseparable from the tradition, but, over time, possibly evolving to a point equally original.

参考译文： 从对创造力的态度来说，优先次序似乎是颠倒了: 西方的年轻人先是大胆创新,然后逐渐深谙传统; 而中国的年轻人则几乎离不开传统,但是,随着时间的推移,他们同样可能发展到具有创新的境界。 

请问老师，句子的主干是there seems to be a reversal of priorities，to be 可以省略。句中所有红色字体的前面都省略了who were 变成了现在分词作后置定语了，是吗？如果是这样，冒号后面的成分实际就是名词词组了，它在句中作何成分呢？我觉得冒号后面不能是单词而应该是有主谓结构的句子来解释a reversal of priority“颠倒的优先权” 啊。

其次，a point equally original 为何不把equally original 放在 point前面。貌似只有修饰名词something时，形容词和副词才居后吧？非常感谢。
