What's there on the desk? 与 What's on the desk? 区别？

Question

想把下面there be 句型改成特殊疑问句
There is a pencil on the desk

What's there on the desk? 与 What's on the desk? 区别？
其中加不加there让人有点不明白？

Answer 1

there与on the desk是一个意思，加个there指向性更明确了。there与is并不是there be结构，因为there be结构不与what连用。

What's on the desk?追问

多谢您的回复啊朋友
再打扰一下
There is a pencil on the desk 改成特殊疑问句：
What's there on the desk? 可否？

追答

也可以，不过如果单独做这样的练习时，强调的是what而不是on the desk,所以最好不加there。
