Telling the Time - How to tell time in English

[englishtext]Example…
I usually get up at a quarter past seven - that's seven fifteen in the morning. I have breakfast at eight o'clock and then take the bus to work at half past eight. I usually arrive at work at a quarter to nine. Sometimes, the bus is late and I arrive at about nine. My morning is usually pretty busy and I like taking a coffee break at twenty to eleven if possible. I then work to lunchtime at noon. In the afternoon, I usually have another break at three fifteen. I usually finish work at a quarter to five and arrive home around six in the evening. At night, I usually go to bed at eleven o'clock.
Look at the rules for telling time in English:

• In English we use "past" to say times after the hour until half past, or 30 minutes past the hour.
• We use "to" to say times before the hour from 31 minutes until the full hour.
• In English we use o'clock only at the full hour. Example: It's eight o'clock.
• We can also just say the numbers in groups of two. Example: It's seven twenty-five.
• When speaking about the different times of the day we often use: in the morning, in the afternoon, in the evening.
• Be careful! In English we use at night NOT in the night.[/englishtext]
