Think of it as two curves to draw.
One starts at x just greater than 0, somewhere in negative y, passes through (1,0) and (2,3) and off to infinity at x=3.
The other comes down from infinity at x=3, passing through (4,3), and just touches the x-axis at a turning point (5,0) before heading off to infinity again through (6,3).
What I can't see from the given description is how far into negative y it goes near x=0. It definitely must "start" negative, since it increases on [0,3) and passes through (1,0), but we don't know.
And just when you thought it was safe to put down your pencil :-) -- it's an odd function, so you have to draw it all again upside down on negative x, since it has 180-degree rotational symmetry around the origin!
