Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. do not.

The phrase "do not fritter away" in blank 2 means "don't waste." So, the complete sentence would be advising against wasting the effort put into completing a dialogue by relying solely on memory.

Instead, it suggests taking proactive steps to ensure that the meaning and content of the dialogue are preserved and not lost over time.
