And for following sentence:
i) Where was a very different atmosphere in the town this morning than there was yestermorning?
I doubt about your comment that it is question. We should not confuse W brothers (Where in this case) with only question situation. W brothers and one H can be used in scenarios other than questions also.
Ok Brother i think He said, "Shall I bring you some tea." is right.

And in sentence
i) Where was a very different atmosphere in the town this morning than there was yestermorning?
In question paper Where is used than it is must to have a "?" at the end, if not than we can replace "where" with "there" and hence no need of "?" and sentence goes like this
i) There was a very different atmosphere in the town this morning than there was yestermorning.
