The reason he didn't understand the true situation is the
> same reason he didn't try in his lessons - he was being kept 
completely in the dark. 

But who was keeping him in the dark?  We know Snape was, yes, but on 
whose orders?  Was in Dumbledore who told Snape to just give Harry 
the bare minimum information?  Again, the problem with the books is 
we don't see what goes on outside Harry's perspective!!  Snape gets 
the blame for the occulmeny lessons going bad, but maybe he's just 
following Dumbledore's orders; we probably won't know until book 7.

And remember, even Hermione tried to get Harry to do his homework, 
but Harry, in his hatred of Snape, won't do it.  Yes, Harry is not an 
adult yet, but like I tell my daughter, if you want to be treated as 
more than a child, then start acting like one, and sometimes, that 
means following the rules adults set for you.
