Singing with Elvis By ten o'clock Monday night, the basement of Murray's Restaurant was packed. A group of music lovers were gat

hered to hear J.P. Rivers and his band play old Elvis tunes into the small hours of the morning. J.P., wearing shiny pants and jacket, swung his hips and curled his lip just like the King. That night, as J.P. was introducing his band members, a stranger called out, "If you're going to play, why don't you play 'Hound Dog'?" J.P. was used to getting requests from Elvis fans. He tossed the man a nod of recognition and then continued to introduce the other band members. When the man called out his request for the third time, Tony, the drummer, put down his sticks and stood up to see who was making all the noise. Tony yelled back, "Why don't you come up here and sing it yourself?" J.P. shot a quick glare at Tony, but before he could say anything, the man was making his way onto the stage. He was older, about sixty — a heavy man with thick salt and pepper hair and sideburns. J.P. gave the guy credit for having the Elvis look, but he was annoyed at the interruption. The man took off his leather jacket, picked up the microphone and turned to smile at the group. J.P. handed over his guitar to the stranger. What happened next shocked everyone at Murray's that night. When the stranger sang "Hound Dog," it sounded exactly like the real Elvis. Sure, he was much older than the hip-swinging boy who had appeared on the Ed Sullivan show, but his voice was just as rich and powerful. When he finished the song and walked off the stage, the crowd applauded thunderously. J.P. stood still, totally amazed by the man's talent. By the time J.P. got to the microphone to give his thanks, the stranger had already disappeared into the crowd. 1 Choose the best summary of the story. A. This story is about an Elvis impersonator. A stranger keeps repeating a request for "Hound Dog." When the stranger sings for the crowd, he amazes everyone with his voice. J.P. is annoyed at first, but then he's impressed. When
