Try onChange() Catalog Client Script on your choice variable and set the value of text field under the choice field. Something like below in client script should work.

var choiceValue = g_form.getValue('<choice_variable_backend_name>');
if(choiceValue == '<some_choice_backend_value>'){
        g_form.setValue('<text_input_variable_backend_name>', 'some text');
} else if(choiceValue == '<some_choice_backend_value>'){
        g_form.setValue('<text_input_variable_backend_name>', 'some text');
}

You can also try with switch cases instead of if-else.

If you just want to set the choice value to the text field, then utilize the below script.

var choiceValue = g_form.getValue('<choice_variable_backend_name>');
g_form.setValue('<text_input_variable_backend_name>', choiceValue);
// To set the lable of choice value, utilize the below statement.
//g_form.setValue('<text_input_variable_backend_name>', g_form.getOption('<choice_variable_backend_name>', newValue).text);

To map the text variable value to description, use map to field in variable configuration.
