You can insert a section break and have 1+ columns in the new
section, then break again and go back to 1.
It's perhaps worth mentioning that you cannot insert section breaks:
there is no such thing in LibreOffice.
What Microsoft Word calls its "sections" are indeed actually section
breaks, so you would need to insert two "sections" in Word to achieve
the 1-2-1 arrangement of columns as implied here. But a section in
LibreOffice Writer is what it says it is: a section, not a section
break. So to achieve a 1-2-1 arrangement you make one insertion of a
two-column section within an otherwise single-column document: you
don't "break again".
