• III

Answer 1

I and III 'Two year old' (without hyphens) is a predicative adjective form. So, I is correct and II, incorrect. 'Two-year-old' (with hyphens) is an attributive adjective form which is used before a noun; its noun is understood in the context. So, III is correct, and IV incorrect.
Hence, I and III are the correct answers.
