Answer: (B)

into / inside

Option "B" is the correct answer.

EXPLANATION :-

A Preposition is a word used to link noun, pronoun or phrases to other words within a sentence.

In the first blank, preposition "into" will be used because preposition "into" is used to indicate the direction towards which someone/something is turned when confronting something else ( looked into the box).

In the second blank, preposition "inside" will be used because inside is used to indicate an enclosed area, space or location ( the box).
