feeling afraid is a natural response to getting in front of your peers and giving a speech.

Explanation:

The Cognitive Triangle links thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. The third option ("When you strike out...") shows a thought ("you think you have failed"), feeling ("disappointed and angry"), and behavior ("throw your bat"), matching the concept. Other options focus on emotion - emotion, universal feelings, or natural response without the thought - feeling - behavior link.
