  1. No italics showed up on my screen, but I imagine it's the first clause that you need to change, right?  So it could be "As Harry drew near the fire, he nearly singed his jacket."  There are other possibilities, such as a different subordinating conjunction or more extensive rewriting, such as "Harry drew so near the fire that he nearly singed his jacket."


  2. the ans could be

    When Harry drew near the fire, he nearly singed his jacket.  

  3. Harry nearly singed his jacket when he drew near the fire.  :-)

  4. When Harry drew near the fire, he nearly singed his jacket.
