英文小作文：

I am writing to express my concern about the treatment of detainees in our country. As a human rights activist, I am aware of the difficulties faced by those who are detained for various reasons, and I believe that we must do everything we can to ensure that they are treated with dignity and respect.

It is important to note that detention should only be used as a measure of last resort and for the shortest possible period of time. We must also ensure that detainees have access to proper medical care, legal representation, and a fair trial, so that they are not left vulnerable to abuse or unfair treatment.

In conclusion, I believe that we must take a more humane approach to the treatment of detainees, and ensure that they are treated with the respect and dignity that they deserve. This will not only improve the lives of those who are currently detained, but also contribute to a more just and equitable society.
