Hi again Tae Woo Kim,
Good question. I would say that repetition is ALWAYS mechanical, and substitution activities are usually mechanical. However, just in keep in mind, that if we add something to a substitution activity, such as a follow up question like "why?", we can make it meaningful.
I hope that helps and if not, please get back to me!

Hi again TaeWoo,
Yes, it would make it more meaningful, because students would have to think about the answer. Good question by the way!
Have a great day!
