"他先向四周看看"
I understand this means "He looked all around". But what does 先向 mean in this sentence?
The two characters 先向 are not a single unit. They are understood individually.
先 = first
向 = toward; 向四周 = toward all around. So, it's supporting the phrase “all around."
"露在外面的脖子"
What is the meaning of this sentence?
露在外面 = exposed outside, visible on the outside
的 = here points to what it is that is exposed
脖子 = neck
The phrase basically means, “head exposed on the outside”
