下面这句话来自新闻报道，也被选做阅读理解材料，网页上可以查到。Compared with foreign festivals, traditional Chinese festivals are not inferior in cultural connotation, but lack of fashionable elements pursued by modern people.

其中关于lack的用法想请教各位老师：

1.文章使用了lack of，则lack被当成名词。

①假如原句中的lack of fashionable elements pursued by modern people与not inferior in cultural connotation并列，则并列句还原成：traditional Chinese festivals are lack of fashionable elements pursued by modern people.但并没有be lack of sth的用法。正确句子应为traditional Chinese festivals are in (a) lack of fashionable elements pursued by modern people. 则原句将in 省略了，请问这样可以吗？

②假如原句中的 lack of fashionable elements pursued by modern people 与cultural connotation并列，则并列句还原成：traditional Chinese festivals are not inferior in (a) lack of fashionable elements pursued by modern people. 虽然句子语法正确，但逻辑错误。

2.个人认为如果将原句lack of中的of 去掉，将lack当成及物动词使用，则语法和逻辑都正确。请问我的想法对吗？

感谢各位老师！
