Orna:

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.
