How can I change the script to run it with CRON?

Question

PHP

Good afternoon, I'm working with cron for the first time, when I start it from the hosting control panel with the command

GET xn--80acq4ak0e.xn--80aaatxoydf6aq7i.xn--p1ai/script.php

I get an error

<b>Parse error</b>:  syntax error, unexpected '['  on line <b>6</b>

Can you tell me what needs to be changed, that the script has earned with the help of cron? without cron, just when you go to the page everything works

You don't have Timeweb, do you? They stubbornly hold on to the PHP 5.3 cli.
You need to force a newer version of PHP to run (for example, by writing a sh-script and writing it to cron).
