thanks to 后可以加动名词或doing

同意ISBN_7的意见，很专业，这里的TO是介词

是的
例如 thank you for giving me help

其后通接名词或代词.如：Thanks to you, I was saved from drowning. 多幸了你我才没淹死.Thanks to the bad weather, the match was cancelled. 由于天气不好,比赛被取消了.由于thanks to 中的to是介词,后接动词时...

不可以，to为介词，楼主可以这样说
thanks to the rain,the match was canceled.全怪下雨，比赛取消了（是想比赛）。也可译为，幸亏下雨，比赛取消了（是不想比赛）。
It was thanks to your timely help that we accomplished the task on time.
幸亏你及时帮忙,我们才按时完成了任务。
Due to/Owing to/Thanks to + N/Ving, ~~~ （因为...）
例句：Thanks to his encouragement, I finally realized my dream.
因为他的鼓励，我终于实现我的梦想。
