Actually Fake!Moody says it¡¦s twice that it¡¦s on DD¡¦s orders that he
teaches them the curses, and how to resist the Imperious Curse, so I
think he hadn¡¦t much choice in it. Harry seemed to know intuitively
how to resist the curse, at least a little bit, so I wouldn¡¦t grant
Fake!Moody too many points on this.
Perhaps he had some personal involvement in wanting to try to
understand Harry¡¦s powers. WW and DE in particular want to
understand how come that Harry escaped, and defeated Voldemort as
baby. It¡¦s McGonagall¡¦s question to DD, Harry¡¦s as well, and it
seems that every De is preoccupied by it. Riddle in CoS and GoF acts
around this issue, asking, trying to prove Harry hasn¡¦t got powers
etc. I think that Fake!Moody acts the same way ¡V he tries to measure
Harry¡¦s powers. As to teaching him to resist ¡V as I said, I believe
its DD¡¦s orders.

Orna:
About further duelling - I rather think voldemort would tamper with
his wand, than giving up the final duel. Perhaps, as someone
suggested, that's why Ollivander has disappeared.
