Default American English : telling the time

I have another query about American English. What are the American equivalents (if they're different) of ..

It's ten o'clock
It's ten oh five
It's ten fifteen
It's ten forty

and

It's five past ten
It's a quarter past ten
It's half past ten
It's twenty to eleven
It's a quarter to eleven
It's two minutes to eleven

Thanks.
Sue
