 Britain’s “Dr Death,” serial killer Harold Shipman, who may
have killed nearly 300 of his patients, hid his murder spree behind the
mask of a much-loved suburban doctor. The number of Shipman’s possible victims announced in a British government Health Department report today, would place him just behind recent history’s most prolific serial killer, Colombian Pedro Armando Lopez.  serial
killer：连环杀手；谢普曼表面上是一个受人爱戴的乡村医生，实际上却是杀人不眨眼的恶魔。 much-loved：受人爱戴的。 suburban：郊区的，偏远的。 prolific：多产的，众多的；哥伦比亚的洛佩斯在此之前是杀人最多的连环杀手。Dubbed the “Monster of the Andes,” Lopez allegedly killed 300 young girls in Colombia, Peru and Ecuador although he was only convicted of 57 murders in 1980. A review of the records from Dr. Harold Shipman’s practice, carried out by a University of Leicester professor, found that Shipman, who was convicted in February of killing 15 elderly women with injections of heroin, had 297 more deaths over a 24-year period than similar practices in the area. dub：称号，名称；心狠手辣的洛佩斯被人称为“安的斯山魔鬼”。

Most of the deaths tended to be women over the age of 75 who died in the afternoon and when Shipman was alone with them. He hoarded lethal drugs like candy and often tenderly patted his victims’ hands as he injected them with heroin along with an assurance that it would cure their illness. corpse：尸体；谢普曼杀死的几乎都是75岁以上的老妇人。
candy：糖果；美国俚语中它是可卡因的意思，谢普曼欺骗病人们说给她们注射药物，实际上却用毒药将她们至于死地。 |
