Solution

failed
failed

The answer is a 2-year-old who has not yet spoken any words.

Explanation
Option 1: A newborn who suffered anoxia during delivery

The Bayley III Scales of Infant and Toddler Development are typically used for children from 1 month to 42 months old. While a newborn who suffered anoxia might be assessed for developmental issues, the Bayley III is more suited for slightly older infants and toddlers.

Option 2: A 4 1/2-year-old who shows high intelligence

The Bayley III is designed for children up to 42 months (3.5 years) old. A 4 1/2-year-old would be too old for this assessment, and other tools would be more appropriate for evaluating intelligence in older children.

Option 3: A 2-year-old who has not yet spoken any words

This child falls within the age range for the Bayley III Scales, which are used to assess developmental delays in infants and toddlers. The lack of speech by age 2 could indicate a developmental issue, making this child a suitable candidate for assessment with the Bayley III.

Option 4: A 3-year-old who developed language at an early age

While this child is within the age range for the Bayley III, the scales are typically used to assess developmental delays or concerns. A child who developed language early might not be the primary candidate for this assessment unless there are other developmental concerns.
