Question restatement: A and B are two short dialogue lines with a fill-in dropdown for each line.
A: 「　 [Select] どれ / その / これ / あの   とけいは、いくらですか。」
B: 「　 [Select] あの / これ / その / それ   は、一万八百円です。」

Option analysis for A:
- その: This is the correct choice in this context. その時計は refers to a clock that is not right here with the speaker, but is known to both speakers (or already introduced in conversation). It naturally forms the phrase そのとけいは、いくらですか, meaning “That clock, how much is it?”
- あの: While あの時計 also means “that (over there) clock,” it is used for objects distant from both speakers or when emphasizing distance. If the intended reference is the clock discussed in the dialogue, その is a more typical, conversational pick in this context unless the speaker wants to indicate something farther away.
- これ: This would be used for something near the speaker, i.e., “this clock,” which does not fit if the dialogue is about a clock being discussed in general or offered by someone else.
- どれ: This means “which (one)?” and would be used if you were choosing among several clocks. It would not grammatically fit as the determiner before 時計 in a declarative statement.

Option analysis for B:
- それ: This is the correct choice here. それ refers back to something mentioned earlier (the clock in A), so それは、一万八百円です means “That (clock) is 18,800 yen.” It smoothly links to the previous line.
- あの: If used here, あの時計は would imply a distant or previously mentioned clock, but in typical back-and-forth, それ is the natural pronoun to reference the same item already introduced.
- これ: This would point to something near the speaker, i.e., “this clock,” which would be odd if the item under discussion is the same clock being priced after being mentioned by name previously.
- まさにその: Not among the given simple options, but in general would be redundant with それ in this context.

Summary rationale: The dialogue uses a demonstrative that references a clock already in play in the conversation. A chooses その to refer to that clock in the first line, establishing the topic. B then uses それ to refer back to the same clock as the subject of the price statement. The other options fail because they mislocate proximity (これ vs あの) or shift the meaning (どれ as “which one”) or break natural discourse flow.
