The ATC wants you to land on he Active Runway, which is the runway with the largest headwind, therefore making the easiest landing.

Once Flight Sim's ATC had selected a runway, they will not let you land using from the opposite direction. You can select a different approach, but you will always be directed to land on the original runway.  Think of a controlled runway as a one way street, with the tower controlling the direction, which in flight sim is usually based on wind direction.
