2 - She got a perfect score on the exam.

3 - Your pronunciation is perfect.

4 - It’s hard to be perfect all the time.

5 - That painting looks just like my grandmother. It’s a perfect likeness.

6 - The forger copied my signature perfectly. Uh oh!

7 - What a smile! She has perfect teeth.

8 - The criminal had a perfect alibi.

9 - The doctor said I was in perfect health.
