If only part of a meeting is relevant to your project, arrange to go first. Say you have another appointment you couldn't reschedule or a pressing deadline (even if it's just getting home on time).

如果会议只有部分和你的项目有关，可以协调先走。你可以说有另外一个无法改期的约会或有一件事要到期限了(即便只是准时回家)。

Just arrange the plates on the table, and the people will come -albeit hesitantly, since no one wants to be the first to go for cake.

还是把盘子摆在桌子上吧，人们会去拿的——虽然会有点迟疑不决，因为没人想第一个去拿蛋糕吃。
