I used to feel nervous about having trouble doing my homework. To fix it, I tried out the "Pomodoro Technique". "Pomodoro" is the Italian word for tomato. I used this technique to divide my homework into parts and set a 25-minute timer for each part. After each part, I took a short 5-minute break. After four parts, I took a longer break, about a quarter. Surprisingly, I finished
homework in less time.

One of my ways of remembering what I’ve learnt is to make picture stories. For example, to remind me of the word "playful" I learnt yesterday, I made a picture story for it: In the cold Arctic, there is a PLAYFUL polar bear named Ben. He has an excellent skiing skill.
Experts say that our brains work well with pictures.

Have you ever found it difficult to understand a concept(概念)? Well, I find it turns out to be much easier when I draw it out. Last week, my Geography teacher gave us a lesson about the rotation(旋转) and revolution of the earth. To understand the difference between them, I drew a picture. It’s really clear, isn’t it? Have a try!

答案：1.D 2.A 3.C
解析：
1. 细节理解题。根据Alice部分的介绍“I used this technique to divide my homework into parts and set a 25-minute timer for each part. After each part, I took a short 5-minute break. After four parts, I took a longer break, about a quarter.”可知，番茄工作法是将学习任务拆分，每完成一段学习时间就安排对应休息的方法，A边学习边吃番茄、B学习一小时后休息、C不间断完成作业均不符合原文描述。
2. 细节理解题。根据Lee部分的内容“One of my ways of remembering what I’ve learnt is to make picture stories. For example, to remind me of the word "playful" I learnt yesterday, I made a picture story for it”可知，Lee创作北极熊的图画故事是为了记住新学的单词，B展示绘画技巧、C解释北极熊滑雪方式、D描述北极之旅均在原文中无依据。
3. 细节理解题。根据Tom部分的内容“Have you ever found it difficult to understand a concept(概念)? Well, I find it turns out to be much easier when I draw it out.”可知，Tom建议通过画图的方式来理解难懂的概念，A找老师重新讲解、B编故事记单词、C用计时器管理学习时间均不是Tom提出的学习方法。
