Emphasising sentences

Question

It's pretty clear that using do/did we can emphasise a verb. Such as

I do recommend reading that book.

or

I did enjoy the movie.

But the question is, how to emphasise sentences like

I am keen to work with you.

Words such as "very", "really", "quite" can be used to add emphasis to the word "keen" in the sentence, for example:

I am very keen to work with you.
