Explanation:

• In the given paragraph, there are few errors that we should correct.
• We should always start a sentence by using a capital letter.
• In the first statement - after his speech, his father flicked open the basket lid -as the statement is in past tense we should use flicked.
• In the next part - played the pipe again - we should use played as it is in past tense.
• In the next part - whereupon the snake springed out.
• people ran in terror to save - as statement is in past tense.
• their lives - as people are plural, we should use their.
