I believe the answer is:
benchmark
<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">reference point</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(benchmark is a kind of reference point)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>
(Another definition for benchmark that I've seen is " Reference point or standard".)
