The Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Simple sheets() method returns a list of worksheet objects. Therefore, to access the second worksheet you can do something like the following:

    #!/usr/bin/perl -w

    use strict;
    use Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Simple;


    my $workbook  = Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Simple->read('example.xls
+');

    my $worksheet = ($workbook->sheets())[1];

    while ($worksheet->has_data()) {  
        my @data = $worksheet->next_row();
        print "@data\n";
    }

To get to a specific row you will have to repeatedly call next_row(). You cannot explicitly reference a column using Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Simple so you will have to programmitically build up a column array using the data returned from the rows.
