又 can describe a repetition that is certain to come, such as the days of the week.
Recap
- again又 + Verb + (completed / change)了 = did it again (it already happened once more).
- again又 also fits a certain, regular repetition (again又is是Monday星期一(completed / change)了); a planned or requested "again" takes again / then再.

Your classmate arrived late on Monday, and on Tuesday the teacher sighs when the door opens at 8:20. Close the examples. Say a Mandarin response, then write it in Chinese. Explain briefly in English what the lesson’s pattern adds. Compare with the model, then change one detail and try again.
This is supported productive practice. Compare meaning and structure; your answer need not copy the model. A partner or teacher must hear the spoken response to comment on pronunciation.
