Explanation

A desk is a piece of furniture, usually with a flat surface, used for studying, writing, or working. Many desks have drawers to store books, papers, or pens. In offices, desks hold computers and other work materials. At school, students use desks to read, write, and learn. A desk is different from a table because it is designed mainly for work or study. For example: “The teacher’s desk is at the front of the classroom.”
