Answer:
The above given question is from the prose "On shaking hands" by AG Gardiner.
Gentleman is a term we use for those who possesses certain manners, decency, courtesy while speaking to other people.
According to Gardiner, you should show respect and mannerism by bowing down about 45 degrees. A gentleman usually says hello like that while speaking to Japanese people as a form or courtesy.
A gentleman should also shake hands as a gesture of greeting each other and say 'sorry' and 'please' whenever required as a form of decency.
Different countries have different customs and way of greeting each other. In India you usually touch feet of elders or greet them by saying namaste that involves folding of your hands.
So, a gentleman should be aware of these customs and should always show respect and regard to other people around them.
