　　難句類型：復雜修飾

　　解釋：本句讀到表示并列的連詞and開始變難。and之后的不定式與前面的不定式是并列的，to的前面省略了一個與前面一樣的謂語came.　lacking之后的分詞作定語修飾a sense of female solidarity其后的由who引導的定語從句又修飾逗號前面的salonnieres此從句中又有一個定語從句that each salonniere held in her own salon修飾其前的primacy,但是由于引導詞that在從句中作賓語，因此被省略。

　　意群訓練：However, as they gained cohesion, the Bluestocking came to regard themselves as a women's group and to possess a sense of female solidarity lacking in the salonnieres, who remained isolated from one another by the primacy each held in her own salon.
